[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a threat about having 3 kids and trying to get them to all their activities, check homework, pack lunches etc.  Posters basically said that's what you get for having 3 kids.  It was a little harsh but don't just think about how you will handle things in the next couple years.  Think about getting kids to t-ball and varsity baseball practice at the same time.  [/quote]

This is such a short sighted view.  You have a lifetime of creating a family.  Juggling practices is miniscule.  Think farther about grandchildren, holidays, vacations.  [/quote]

I think the idea is that is that if that is the family you want go for it.  But just remember that when you are full of complaints about how its impossible to get everything done on a day to day basis.  [b]I think making your family planning decisions based on what you want your thanksgiving table to look like 30 years from now is also short sighted.[/b]  [/quote]

This. Your kids might not even come home for Thanksgiving or be particularly close as adults. I know several women who did this just to avoid returning to the workforce.
