[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know more families with three kids than two and almost none with only one. Based on my personal experience, I find it hard to believe that Americans are having less kids. When I was a kid two kids was the norm, but now that seems like a small family. [/quote] Not my experience at all. My friends in the midwest have lots of kids. My friend in DC/Arlington all have 1-2 kids. Very very few with 3 kids. Half of my 4 year old's preschool class are only children. Granted, it may not stay that way for some of them, but I looked around at the class party and 7 of the 13 families are only kids.[/quote] You're right. UMC and upper class people are definitely having fewer kids, which is ironic considering they are the people with more resources to take care of more kids. It's long been that way, of course.
