[quote=Anonymous]I only had one. This keeps things from being too chaotic in a way that overwhelms me, and also enables DH and I to trade-off parenting duties at times so that we both get alone time. I force myself to get over some of my issues as a sacrifice for my kid (for instance, I force myself to be somewhat social in school settings in order to facilitate playdates and other social opportunities for my kid). I WFH so I get my solo recharge time while my kid is at school, which makes it easier for me to enjoy our time together the rest of the time. I think having a kid has been really good for me in many ways, and forces me to work on my social skills and think outside myself. But I'm also really glad I only had one kid and I feel confident that with more kids I'd just be too drained to be an effective parent. [/quote]
