[quote=Anonymous]A 50/50 child is going to feel left out. What are you going to do, never do anything 50% of the time? Your child is going to see the younger kids getting their mom and dad 100% of the time while he/she gets less. And has to make all the compromises necessary for younger siblings like getting less parental attention and only doing family activities that work for the little ones. In the long run they may appreciate having a sibling but in the short term it is a rocky road. They absolutely will feel like an outsider and it may be really hard for them to watch their siblings grow up in an intact family. Think very hard about how many children you can afford.[/quote]
