[quote=Anonymous]I think OP's take is interesting. If it make sense for her, sure! My theory on kids and why I stopped at two is that I get more of the fun with two and not three. The way I see it, you have to spend a certain amount of time taking care of kids' basic needs: keeping kids fed, dressed, cleanly diapered (if you're still in that stage), safe. Then you have a little time for fun stuff. I realized that having three meant much more time taking care of basic needs and less time having fun with them. In the thick of things with my two, I realized if if the kid was happy and content, I wasn't with her. I was with the other one who was crying or hungry or needing his nose wiped. Then I switched. If I had more, there would be more time dealing with the least happy one, and less time for fun. Just my take on things. [/quote]
