[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I accept that he treats his adult children well. Things come up from time to time that hurt, but I recognize that I chose this life. We aren’t pinching pennies and we can afford childcare, but we also aren’t uber wealthy, and there are trade offs and in some instances, conflicting priorities. A big part of me feels that I’d regret not having a second child, but the reality is we might not be able to handle it. [/quote] Are you ok with a child who has special needs and/or different abilities? It doesn’t sound like DH is around a ton, and given his age will not be working for decades. Can you handle the physical and financial responsibilities of a child who has high needs (learning challenges, disciplinary challenges, multiple appt per week, etc)? If so, go for it.[/quote]
