[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have not read other responses, but I am from Europe and this is my take on it. It is very much cultural. I always thought that 2 was the only and the best way. [b]Many young people here now go for at least 3 children and I see the toll that it takes on them. Especially the women are permanently stressed out. How can you give enough attention to three young children? You cannot possibly be the best mother in such circumstances. [/b] Also, it is not culturally acceptable to me to allow my children to start their lives with a huge college debt. I believe I am financially responsible for their education. Most people here don't think that way and have multiple children for selfish reasons. [/quote] You sound extremely judgmental. Some women are stressed by only one kid, some can handle five with no problem. Your world view is very limited. And I am sure some of your fellow countrymen and women would agree. BTW, in this area, many people have more than two children and pay for all of them to go to college. But I guess they are still just selfish Americans.[/quote]
