[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother, who had the 3 of us in her late 20s, told me during one of those "you're an adult now" conversations that she had terminated a pregnancy when she was nearly 40. She and my dad did not want another child; their family was perfect as it was, and mom was not going to start with diapers all over again. So, no, you do not regret the kids you did not have, even in a happily married middle class family. [/quote] +1. People should be much more conservative (not politically, but in the literal sense of the word) when planning family size, IMO. Generally, adding another child has much more downside risk than upside, and people think with their hearts, not their heads, when listing the upsides.[/quote]
