[quote=Anonymous]How could anyone doubt this? It's common sense. Beware friends who tell you to have more kids because they had more and "it's really not a big deal." They are lying and they want you to have more kids so that they won't be the only ones. If you are considering having more kids and ask friends with more what it's like, they better start with "Well of course more kids means more expenses and more time pressure. But also..." They probably are happy with their choice but if they aren't willing to start by acknowledging that OF COURSE more kids is more work, they are sugarcoating and can't be trusted. Also, people with multiple kids forget what it was like to only have one, or only had one for a short period (during which they were first time parents and may have felt overwhelmed anyway), so they often can't really compare. They think they've had both experiences but unless there was a big age gap, they probably haven't really. They only know more kids, not fewer.[/quote]
