[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be a serious stretch. And any hope of meaningful saving for college, retirement, etc... would go out the window. But I feel like that's obvious and I can't point it out in any way that doesn't sound high and mighty. [/quote] Just say it. "I will support whatever decision you make. I love you and Chloe and am concerned about both your futures if you stretch your finances to accommodate a second child. Your ability to save for retirement and Chloe's college education. It's a big undertaking." [/quote] +1 Tell her it's her decision and you will support her, but that you are concerned about the financial consequences. [/quote] +1 This is worded very well. Listen to how she responds. You may have an opening to give her some advice, but also be prepared to dropped it if her mind is completely made up. [/quote]
