[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have a 4th! I'm almost due with #5. Grew up one of four. Not much difference between 3 and 4. [/quote]

The difference is each kid will get less time, attention and money the more u have.[/quote]
They give attention to each other as well. I think that's silly. There are lots of advantages to having siblings. [/quote]

They need attention from the parents not the siblings. This is  what pp was pointing out pawning off parental duties on the siblings.[/quote]
Oh please. Kids having other kids to play with isn't pawning off duties.

I assure you my 6 year old and 5 year old aren't overly burdened by my 2 and 1 year olds. But they definitely enjoy playing with each other and that definitely makes my job as parent easier.[/quote]

How much time did you spend alone with each child?  [/quote]
Each child has a period of the day devoted to them. They also each have once weekly one on one with each parent. [/quote]

So, what?  5 minutes a day?  10?  An hour?  Two hours?  Saying a period of the day really means they don't get much time and you group parent or the oldest looks over the younger kids or a nanny.  Be real about how much time each child gets.[/quote]
