[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both my DH and I came from families of 6 so we wanted 4 kids. I think some people really don’t “get” wanting to have 4 but I see this as similar to people who don’t “get” having kids at all. We love it but I know it would be a difficult family size for some people to handle. [/quote] It's not really about getting it or not being able to handle it. It's that it's completely irresponsible to have that many kids that intentionally. And the parents with 4+ kids are never handling it as well as they think they are.[/quote] What do you think it is that makes you so critical and sensitive towards the idea of larger families? I see these types of responses and they often come off as needlessly defensive and self conscious. I have 2 and am done but there are obviously both good and bad parents of one child and of four. Are people who make snide remarks just jealous? If they truly don’t want more, why?[/quote]
