[quote=Anonymous]Time. Our lives would have been dramatically impacted by another child by the time DC was age 5 or 6 in ways that I found tipped the scales in favor of "no more." I began to firmly believe that the advantages of 1 outweighed the advantages of 2. And I still believe that, FOR OUR FAMILY. By the time DC was 8 or 9 my career was on a trajectory that wouldn't be possible with another child (not in a hard-charging way, but in a logistical, life-satisfaction-and-balance way). I value my career very much, so this felt good to me. I think that if the addition-at-issue is going from 1-2 that is painful because of the sibling vs. only dynamic (this was us). If you already have 2 kids, just suck it up. That's enough. If it's a fight about 0-1, that is gut wrenching, and I am so very sorry. [/quote]
