[quote=Anonymous]Also, what's wrong with being selfish? I'm not saying OP is being selfish but is wanting time for yourself, to focus on things other than child-rearing, a less hectic lifestyle, etc., inherently bad? She has to get on the same page as her husband, but I find it strange how women are painted (and/or made to feel) negatively if they want only one or no children. Having children is as selfish an act as on its other face it is selfless. You could say OP's husband is selfish for projecting his perceived childhood loneliness on his current child and assuming that a sibling will fix this. That's about his feelings, not necessarily his kid's. I'm not saying it's not valid, but it's also selfish, and there's nothing wrong with it. [/quote]
