[quote=Anonymous]Travel is a lot more expensive due to not fitting in taxis, needing a suite or two hotel rooms, rental car with third row etc. We needed a bigger car and house. We’ll have three in college at the same time. For the logistics of the early years and teen years to work, we’ve needed a SAHP. I was able to work part time when they were all at the same elementary school. The families we know with three kids and two full time working parents need to have a nanny or au pair through high school. There is less bandwidth for one-on-one time with each child, and more zone parenting. But overall, it’s fun, albeit chaotic, and three feels like a big family in a cozy, warm way. Plus, my parents are each one of three, as am I. Our siblings also have three. It fits with our extended family culture. [/quote]
