[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m really surprised anyone is actually saying or suggesting that two kids is somehow easier than one. That... doesn’t track with reality. For all of the time your kids spend playing together nicely, literally everything else about parenting is harder. Having one kid is simply easier than having two. That’s just sort of common knowledge...

Two kids are wonderful, but so is knowing your limits. Have a second if you want one, but be prepared that it will be more than double the work and the second kid is truly when your lives start “revolving” (for lack of a better word) around the kids.[/quote]

I think this is how people tend to justify their choices, or in most cases, circumstances. Of course having two kids is harder than one!!![/quote]

My older kid is extremely extroverted. I am not. I assure you that having a second is much easier and more pleasant than if he was an only. The days drag when his sister is away. When she’s home they play and I can do chores. Otherwise he wants me to play with him constantly. [/quote]
