[quote=Anonymous]I see and hear about so many 3-kid families, but most people I know have 0/1/2 kids. I just know two families with three -- one is very wealthy and has 2 sets of involved grandparents + nanny, the other has a stay at home mom. So, if you have 3 kids and two FT careers, what is it like? Do you get enough time with each kid separately? Do your weekends and evenings end up being focused on the various' kids activities, splitting driving with spouse? How do you manage 3 sets of playdates and birthday parties? How do you make sure to have enough time just for you and spouse? Do you get to travel much? Do you get unstructured time to explore locally (new museums, hikes, restaurants, etc?) Does this only work if you can get a 3rd person (Grandparents or nanny) and if both parents want to spend most of their free time on kid stuff? Also, does it work best if you have the kids back to back so you are done with the early childhood years quicker? [/quote]
