[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For possibly the 50th time in the two years I have been on DCUM, NO.  I was an only child and always wanted an only child.  DH has one brother who has been nothing but a heartbreak and worry to him for his entire life so he was 100% on board when we decided to have one.  We have been able to travel extensively with our DD and she has always been able to attend great private schools. We have a wonderful stress free life with our girl. [/quote]

You're a great example of people who are truly comfortable with the choice.  You always wanted just 1 child,  and you don't have a positive view of siblings or thing siblings are really important.  It seems the financial benefits are just an additional benefit, but the main point is that you never WANTED another.

I'm 95% in your camp, with the added factors that I don't think I could be a good mom to 2 due to personal issues, and my relationship is already bad.  Finances make it easier to be comfortable with the decision, but that's really more of a silver lining, not the reason to stop at 1.  [/quote]
