[quote=Anonymous]Growing up I knew a family with five children. The children were all 3-5 years apart. The family was well off and all kids went to private schools and top colleges. Three are now doctors (the father was a prominent doctor). Other two are equally successful. Of the five kids, two have three children, one has four, one has five ! and one has two. They were a generic country club Presbyterian family and not overtly religious.

I know of two other families today with four children. One was a childhood friend and she and her husband returned to the land and have a small farm up in Vermont. They live a very simple life but are very happy and enriched in their own way. The other was the older brother of a classmate and he and his wife live in NYC and have four children as well and he is a known player in the finance sector.

I don't make silly judgements about overpopulation. What works for some people works for them and frankly, they all seem to be happy families.
