[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I told my mother I was expecting #2, as a single mother, she said "OMG, OMG, I thought I'd talked you out of that." Don't say that. You can voice your concerns once, and only once, if you can do so in a compassionate manner. Depending on whether she has frozen embryos "left over," it may not be as time-consuming or expensive to try for a sibling. As for raising two kids, in some ways, having a sibling to play with has eased my parenting demands and the costs (other than childcare) have not risen dramatically. [/quote] How old are your kids? Of course it is more expensive to raise more than child. A few costs I can think of (other than childcare): activities, camps, traveling, grocery bill, eating out, entertainment, school fees/supplies/tutoring, COLLEGE.[/quote]
