[quote=Anonymous]I do and I don't. I have an older teen and wanted more than 1. DH did not. We got to a place where that is fine when DS was about 7 and now we are very happy. On the one hand I very much desire the big(ger) family dynamic that I don't have and never knew. And I love being a parent and would love to have multiplied that. But on the other hand I recognize the logistical and financial challenges that come with having multiple kids (money, college, where do you do Christmas?, we can't all do things together etc...) and I recognize that my kid wouldn't have been the same person with the same life if they'd had a sibling or siblings (and they are amazing and have had a great childhood). I also realize that when I am around big families and lots of family, I...don't really like it! So while I am wistful for something I don't have, I would not say I regret our and my choices. I am happy. [/quote]
