How many Children would you like to have?

November 7, 2011 6:25am CST
The number of large families in the western world has decreased significantly in recent years. yet in Africa, India and other places large families with more than 2 children are common and their populations are exploding. How many children would you like to have and have you come from a big family, what do you think about it all?

yeah, i agree, for all that you love them bullying in school is so common and worrying. it's hard to see your child go through that, are you from a big family?

LoL... I'd have a dozen, had I had the means to raise 'em.... Hi there... I'm kind crazy about kids. I love them. The way they laugh, play and smile. They're just amazing. When a kid is asleep, it is lovely to put my finger in that small, tiny palm. That gives me the most wonderful feeling... Ever tried that???

I know what you mean, I don't have any children at the moment, but when my sister was a baby she used to hold my finger, it's cute :) Do you have kids?

I came from a large family and I would have more children if I had the income to be able to take care of them properly. Unfortunately, I can only afford to take care of our 3 children. More than that right now would be really tough. If we had a lot of money I would like to have 2 more children... =)

If I will be having a family of my own - well I'm not considering this yet - the most ideal number of children will be three (for me). I want two boys and a girl, preferably the girl to be in the middle (2nd). Exploding population is another issue around this rotten world. I just wish we can do something about it other than annihilating other humans! (LOL) It's not like we can stop them all and say "hey! say no to s**!". (Oh yeah, contraceptives and other fam-plan program just lessens the possibity, but its still there.)
