[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you have an idealized picture in your mind of what a two child family would look like and how it would solve your perceived problems (no extended family, no shared interests with your son). In reality, it may “fix” your family for you, but from your son’s perspective you’d be adding a distraction that is way too young to bond with. It wouldn’t fix his loneliness and it would be very clear that his mother is replacing him with a better model (girl to go shopping with) because he’s not good enough. Is that really what you want to do? How would you react if he was completely disinterested or resentful over a baby over a decade younger than him? What if they never bonded? This feels more like when a guy remarries and has a second set of kids, and the first wife’s kids feel left behind and replaced.[/quote]
