[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its not so much the money, but time. Can you really give 4 kids the 1-1 they need.[/quote] That's a big issue for us. DH and I both work FT and neither of us plans to change that. We can technically afford a second kid (our HHI is about $375K) but we want to be able to have certain flexibility and lifestyle, including: - Being able to save for college and retirement without undue stress - Being able to take nice vacations with DD to help her see the world - Being able to give her our attention. We are both exhausted at the end of the day and can't really imagine having to deal with a preschooler and an infant. We know ourselves well enough to know we can be great parents to 1 kid, but probably at best ok parents to 2 kids. We chose to not overextend ourselves. [/quote]
