[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think no one parent should have to deal with multiple children on their own for more than a couple of hours. So if you’re alone with 2 kids, of course you hire a helper. Or if you and DH have 3 kids, of course you hire a helper.[/quote] Did it ever occur to some of you to just stop at one kid if you can't handle more than that without help. Serious question.[/quote] +1 If you are the kind of person that is too low energy for multiple kids, or too rigid, inflexible and/or anxious to handle more than one on your own, then do your kid a favor and keep him/her an only child![/quote] PP here and I suppose I am, in fact, too “low energy” at the moment to handle my 1.5yo and 3.5yo alone for extended periods of time - mostly due to sleep deprivation. I mean, I could if I absolutely had to. But I don’t have to (grandparent help and hired help) so why should I? It won’t be forever.[/quote]
