[quote=Anonymous]I think three is twice as much work as two. With two, they sometimes played with each other and were occupied. With three, someone is always out and wanting your attention. Mine are now a bit older and the activities are crushing. They don’t even do anything crazy like dance or travel sports—that would just be impssobike with three unless I quit my job and had full time help. It does depend a bit on whether your kids end up with similar interests, etc. my kids all are fairly different and like different things so it’s just hard to find overlaps. I know families with three where two of the kids do the same extracurriculars, etc. I do think it was easier when the third was a toddler/preschooler and didn’t have her own opinions and independent desires. Managing three competing sets of interests is difficult—basically someone is always dissatisfied. Maybe that builds character? [/quote]
