[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, you aren’t giving enough time to each kid or to your kids as a whole. They will likely be fine but will likely not reach their full potential. You clearly don’t know your kids very well and they likely feel distant from you. If it’s easy, you aren’t doing enough. [/quote] Since when did only having one or two children allow you to ensure they reach their full potential? This assumes that every parent has the same capacity - physically, temperamentally, emotionally, and the same resources to draw on both from family and community as well as financially. It also assumes there is nothing materially beneficial about sibling relationships, such as the fact they may be protective or offer other benefits. I’ve missed your other posts as I haven’t followed the discussion, but I’m sure your “theory” about helping your children self actualize by only having one child, or whatever the magic number is, reinforces all of your choices.
