How many children should parents have

I think the parents should have two children at least in the period of life.One child is too single in daily life.Two children are the suitable number of children.More than two children is hard for parents to survive them.

I believe that they keys to an orderly household are love and respect. The parents should respect their children, but most important, the children must be taught to respect authority. The parents must love and respect each other and NEVER undermine the other. Each child should be made to feel loved, and that he/she is an important part of the family unit. Note that I said an important part of the family unit, not THE most important part.

I have 2 sons allready. If financial situation of my family will get better in upcoming few years and my and my wife health will be ok, i think we could make one more child. Offcourse i would love to have like 5 childrens, but i am 30 (also my wife) and after 35 there can be problems in childbirth for woman. just one more thing to remember: Childrens bring blessing ;)

I think that a family should make as many kids as they know that they can , depending on their financiar situation too , because that kid has a lot of needs , and if you want that your child to have more than you had when you were at his age , then you should think twice after the first kid if you can support another or not .

I have 6 children and sometimes they do not get on as they all have difference of opinion.It is nice to have alot of children,but it is also alot of hard work,aswell as they cost alot of money aswell.I think aswell as i have been told that i am a good mother with good priciples.

I think two or three is a good amount. I feel bad for only children because they have no one to play and interact with on a daily basis. I also think people are having too many kids and that the world is overcrowded as is and that we need to have more birth control going on. We can't all have Brady Bunches.

It's much better if you have less kids. So you can look up to them and see how each and every child grows. You will be their for them each and every stage they experience with their lives. I think three is better for a family whether the parents can afford to pay for every child's needs or not..

Family planning is necessary if you ask me. I would settle for a couple of kids that would be enough and i think the rest of the population should do that also. But theoretically speaking it isn't enough. But for population control and especially in a place like India we need less population adn more talent. Cheers!

"TWO IS ENOUGH" (*) 2 to 3 decades ago, there were joint family system. if a couple have 12 kids, they can be managed and brought up well. My grandma (father's mom) have 9 kids. they are all well settled, in good positions. (**) If we treat our kids in a good way, say, good manners, good habits, self-confidence and all other good things, to become a man/woman of destiny, numbers(no. of kids) is not important. in what way the kids were growing. (***) In another way of thinking, too many kids too many burden. Just think about the family situation, money-wise, take the decision. (****) In this fast moving world, 2 is enough. One kid should not be there. he/she does know about the sharing, affection, give&take, etc. Also the parents, give more love and gives him/her, whatever he/she asks for. the kid receives the apple without working. (*****) At the age of 14 onwards, the kid should know the expenses of the family.
