well i only have one brother, so there are two of us. we really are a happy family, but we often talk how great it would be to have another brother or sister. so i hope to have three kids myself. If talking only about the choice between one and two, i'd say it's better to have two kids. they will never feel lonely :)

Same here, me and my sister always talked about how it would be if there were 3 of us. But i have to say 2 sounds better than one =P

i think two kids are fine....only one kid feels lonely and also generally single child lacks the habit of sharing he has everything of his own nothing to share....though my husband likes kids a lot he wants more kids but as we have two we have decided not to have more

I think an only child can get lonely. In some cases an only child can get spoiled. I know that if there are two children close in age that is perfect. Three children can be wonderful. If the budget allows four children are fine. It is lovely for a couple to have two children: a girl and a boy. If they have two boys it is nice for them to have a girl as well. Whilst if they have two girls it is lovely if they can have a boy as well. I think that a girl, boy and girl combination is fine. The same could be said for a boy, girl, boy combination. It is excellent to have two boys and two girls. If a couple have five girls they might long for a son. If a couple have seven boys they might wish to have a daughter.

I think two children will be perfect for a family. One child seems to be alone. You won't just love him/her only if you have two children. This is why people often think one child can be spoiled. Two children can play together and they can also compete to each other. It is a good development. I love China

i guess many will do as long as the couple can support their kids financially and make sure that they can both give them equal attention. as what they say the more the merrier. but if thinking about financial situation specially now that the life is so hard. i guess having one or two kids will be enough.
