How many babies do you think complete a family ?

When I got married for the first time, I wanted three children. Two boys and a girl. Well, I ended up with twice as many. yes, I have six kids, and two husbands later...I wish I would have done things differently.

Me personally , I don't want any. But I think the number Should vary from person to person. There are parents that their first child and feel complete. And then there are women like my dear friend who just had her first child and she Knows she wants another. I hope you can find a way to have the 4 you want. Take Care.

I think that 2, 3 or 4 children are ideal for each family. I have got 3 children: two boys and a girl. My sister has 4 children: two boys and two girls. Before I had my children I hoped to have a girl and then a boy a few years later. If I had got just one child I would have preferred a girl. It depends on a family's wealth and size of home. If a family have a very large house I think it is reasonable for them to have many children. I am very keen on traveling. The infant airfare is hardly anything, the child fare is for 2 to 11 year old and it is about 75% of the adult fare which is over 12 year olds. At the moment I travel with my 3 year old disabled son and my 18 month of daughter. We will go on another trip before she gets to 2 years old.

It depends on a lot of things . 'Enough' is a general term, just like 'success'. What it IS depends on who you are. To some people, ONE is too many. To some people, maybe even ten isn't 'enough'. I have three - two are grown, one is six. If I were still in my early 20s I'd probably still have 3, and be happy with 3. As things stand, there are 22 months between the first two, and then 12 years between the middle and the last lol. My family is small right now, there's just the three of us left at home, but it is perfect.

I've always wanted to start having children relatively young and have perhaps a gap of 4 years between each of them so that they can appreciate their baby brother/sister when they arrive. I would want about 4 children, so that the eldest would be 12 when the last was born.. then I wouldn't have too long to wait for grandchildren!! He he. Sorry but I am very family orientated and I love new babies, so I cannot wait to put my plan into action!

Hello friend, I wanted it three - two girls and a boy or vice versa, but unfortunately, all three kids are boys, I have no girl at all. They were all Cesarean delivery. My husband fears is who will take care of us when we get older? I just laughed hiding my fears too, and answer him start saving for our old age.

Hi. GoldenAsh. For me, four is enough. But, it all depends on what a family desires. It is a decision that only you can make for yourself. I have people telling me all of the time, that I don't need anymore kids. I three kids that I am taking care of right now. I have not gotten pregnant in three years now. I don't plan to anytime soon. Maybe in three of four more years, I would like to have another child. The number of kids that you may have, is your decision alone, and what you can only handle as being a parent.

Hi, For me,either one or two is more than enough to a complete family. Currently, I have only one child and I don't think I am going to add for another child.It is more than enough for me. Due to high living standard and high expenses, we really can't afford to have another child in hand. And I am not capable to takecare of two kids at the same time.

I really think that it depends on the family. We always thought that two would be perfect but after having one and having some complications it seems like one will be our magic number. We feel complete with her. We have weighed the options of more and for us it seems our best option is to have one. There are many things to consider and I don't think that there is one right answer for everyone. I know that there are a lot of different ways to make things work and even though the economy is what it is there are always different options and sometimes we learn to live with less to have more. So I wish everyone luck with what they decide.

If you really want four kids, then have four. The money will come--you have your whole life to make enough money. But being able to physically and emotionally bear a child is, for most women, a relatively short period of time. You will never regret having more children, but you might regret not having as many as you would like (within reason). We have two beautiful children, and I though that would be enough, but now that they are older, I do miss having a baby, and wish that I had had a third. But I am happy with the two I have, and thankful that I have them!

hi goldenAsh, If I would answer your question, I would want 2 babies, a boy and a girl to complete my family. Generally, having one child is enough top complete a family. A family is composed of a mother, a father and child/children. But on the contrary, it's not good for a child to grow up alone. I mean not having at least one sibling. I child would grow well if they can see from one another how they are taken cared of. If one sees how mom and dad love the other, he would fee that, that's how their parents love them. There, they will have a strong foundation, emotionally, mentally, and socially. This is my view and this is what I wanted. :-) Happy mylotting!

for me, two babies are enough in a family. it because of the crisis that we've been experiencing right now and also for the sake of our children that they will live with aright and good kind of living.

My ideal children is two. This is already enough for parents to provide good education and life for my children.

i would say two babies to complete a family

1 baby would be enough. seriously speaking if we are to talk about the future of the baby and the current life situation of us regular employees... i think more than 2 would definitely be a lot to think about... =(

I think there is no fixed answer to this question. It really depends on whether one has the financial ability to raise the children that you are going to bring into this world. It is a great and lifelong responsibility. It also depends on whether you have you have a loving and stable relationship with your spouse....I do not think it is fair to let children grow up in an environment where parents are quarelling whole day long.

However many you can afford financially and emotionally. I don't agree with people having more children than they can actually raise themselves and financially afford to provide for each one comfortably. For me personally, I never want any children at all.

I think that depends on the couple and the individual. If you want two kids, then you should have two kids, or at least try to. Every family is different, and every couple is different as well. I think that you should try to have as many kids as you would like to have.

I think two babies are enough for a happy family. Some couples consider a single baby but for near future support between the generation next... two are best. Have a nice day.

i don't have any kid yet, however i think two to three kids complete a family, more than three kids will be a mess, and it will hard to take care of them....
