[quote=Anonymous]You want one and can afford one (as in, can feed, clothe, house, and provide health care for everyone). That's all the reason you need. I'm one of 3, as is DH. We can't imagine NOT having 3. We're taking it one kid at a time, of course, but being 1 of 3 was so much fun. There was always a sibling around to interact with. And now that we're older, it still feels festive if one of us can't make a family gathering (say, as we marry and have other commitments). We get along really well, and it's nice to know that we'll have each other as our parents age, particular as we start to need to care for them. But if you feel the downsides will outweigh the good, then please heed that. A lot of the things you mentioned will carry as much weight as you give them, so if you think your perspective will color how you experience another child, please take that into consideration.[/quote]
