[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a single mom by choice with 1 DD. I contemplated a 2nd but then the pandemic happened. And my DD was a huge threenager and that put me off for a 2nd too. I'm glad I didn't and my DD says she loves being an only and wouldn't want to split my attention. My DD is at the age where she and I can have fun adventures together. Financially it's a lot easier and I don't have to worry about finances. As someone with ADHD, I am not sure I could mentally deal with more than one.[/quote]

Likewise.  I'm a solo mom by choice with 1 DD.  I always say I just squeezed her in (had her the end of year 40) and we have a wonderful life.  I briefly thought about rolling the dice on a second, but in a HCOL area, and without family close by, I decided it would just be too much to handle. She has plenty of friends, is close with our family when we see them, and is thriving.  I'll set my later life up so she doesn't have to worry as much about my care, etc.  That's the gift I can give her even if I couldn't give her a sibling. [/quote]
