[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lol anything over 2 is "large."  Maybe in Provo, but nobody in the DMV thinks you have a "normal" sized family.[/quote]

I think so too. My coworker just had her third and when she told people she was pregnant, everyone was amazed. The only people I know with more than two kids are really rich or really poor. [/quote]

I feel this way too. I'm one of four and it was too much. Recently I met a woman pregnant with her fourth and she told me it's easy because she just just lets them take care of each other and just doesn't care too much about anything. I hope she was just being flippant because that's kind of how my parents were and it wasn't great. It mean I was often in charge of my younger brother even when I was still very young, and it means that negative dynamics between my siblings (like my older sister being really overbearing towards me) weren't checked by an adult and just got worse and worse with time.

I have one kid and that's all I need.[/quote]
