[quote=Anonymous]"Finally, if you overextend yourself that much to raise the big family you always wanted, ignoring the reality of what it’s like to raise said family, [b]there’s a decent chance you won’t have the kind of home life that makes adult kids want to spend that much time with their parents later on.[/b] Very few people can afford the resources of a SAH parent AND a full-time nanny AND grandparents down the street. That’s… not realistic for most. We have three and love it and embrace the chaos and messiness that comes with raising three kids. I certainly hope we’ll all be close in 20+ years and for grandkids and all that, but I can’t fathom using such a long timeframe to drive this kind of decision. [b]DH and I love having three kids *now* and look forward to *raising them*, not the time when they’ll be out of the house.[/b]"[/quote]
