[quote=Anonymous]We're about 90 percent sure that we're only having one child, and I agree that your response depends on who it is. Fortunately, my mother is very chill about it. She comes from a family of six, but when my aunt was asking me about whether we were having another, my mom said, "It will be fine either way, of course!" If it's someone close to you, then I would say that while you know they mean well, you and your husband are happy with your decision, and you would appreciate them not saying negative things about your decision regarding family size. If they do it again, end the conversation and leave. If it's an acquaintance or stranger--I'd just say, "What an awful thing to say," or "Why would you say something like that?" Or "Wow." Don't get into justifying your decision to outsiders. People really shouldn't say crap like this. [/quote]
