[quote=Anonymous]I decided on two because: That is how many hands I have, it makes crossing the street easier. That is how many parents my children have, it makes divide and conquer easier. It is slightly less than replacement and not increasing the population, I would have had just one, but I wanted elder DC to have a sibling. I grew up in a two child household. My mother grew up in a two child household. Until age 11, my father grew up in a two child household. MIL grew up in a two child household. FIL grew up in a two child household. We could afford college for two while maintaining a balanced lifestyle. In retrospect, two is what DH & I can handle. But that is me. OP you are you, so you have to weigh the pluses and minuses of your life to see if it is a wise choice. Good luck either way.[/quote]
