[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would agree with the previous poster. You can have a large family as long as none of them need a ton of attention (special needs, learning issues, social issues, etc.). If any of them need a lot of one on one time, chances are you will hit a limit on what you can do. Its also a lot easier when they get older, so large age gaps make a big difference. [/quote] OP here. My middle one does have some disabilities, which is why I quit my teaching job - too difficult with his therapy schedule plus appointments plus taking sick days for 3 kids. Outside of his appointments, I wouldn’t say he requires more of my attention/energy than my other 2, though. And, truthfully, having siblings has been the amazing for him developmentally. I do worry what would happen if our 4th also had any issues.[/quote]
