 | Your very welcome and Im glad you took the message the way I intended. My "hats off to you" on raising three children, I myself do not have enough patience to raise 3, 2 children is my limit. I do disagree with you on one thing...I think more people should consider their financial situation before having children. I don't think you should have babies if you can't afford them, the only ones to really suffer are the kids. I want my son to have every advantage in life...braces if he needs them, help with his first car, college if he wants to go, and nice clothes to wear (kids can be so cruel if you aren't in the "in" crowd). Now I have no idea what your financial situation is, so Im not saying this directly to you, but in general I think money should be a factor. My husband and I told my mother in law that we were thinking about only having one baby, so I could further my career and we could take family vacations etc., she rolled her eyes and told me you don't have children because you can afford them, you just have them because you want them. I don't think so. Im still unsure about the idea of just having one baby tho, the stigma that follows only children is awful (they must be spoiled or lonely) I have a sibling so I don't know what it would be like w/o one. Anyway Im off topic so Ill just say that I hope everything works out for you and your family and you can find whatever it is that you need to fullfill you, maybe it's something deeper than having another child. |
