[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends. I'm a divorced mom who would desperately like another child, but a lot of stuff weighs against it for me personally: 1) I would need to rush it, due to biological considerations. That risks repeating some of the same mistakes that led to my first marriage. 2) There would be a big age gap, so my existing child would need to reorient their whole life around having a baby in the house. A lot of things that we do as a family would be disrupted. 3) My child already feels like their dad abandoned them for a new relationship. It's not FAIR that I would orient my parenting around his failures, but a lot of things in life aren't fair. [/quote]
