[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have this regret about not having a third (am now 45). 
It would have killed my career esp during covid, plus one of my kids (they are 7 and 9) has adhd and needs extra attn. BUT I still find myself thinking about this every day. Anyone else in the same boat? How do I get past this feeling? URGH. [/quote]

No. I'm very thankful for not having another one. I love my kids but having kids gives lot of stress and drains lot of money. We are donut hole family so literally spent a fortune on colleges.[/quote]

You aren't a donut hole family.  You are a comfortable family who choose expensive schools for your kids.[/quote]

Pardon my ignorance but what is a donut hole family?[/quote]

NP. I think it means they don’t make that much money but make too much to qualify for financial aid? Like they just got left out of the donut?[/quote]

It means they have a good salary but preferred to spend their money vs save and expect their kids to go to a pricy college for free.  [/quote]
