[quote=Anonymous]As a middle child who is now in therapy (I’m not a dud I just have issues) I can say with confidence that spreading your finite resources across more children is a terrible way to facilitate those kids being successful by whatever metric you measure success. Not just money but parental time and attention. Some people pull it off either because they are extraordinary, above average parents or because they got lucky with family dynamics (like with one or two kids who are really chill). I knew I wasn’t cut out to navigate that so I stopped at one kid. I think it’s selfish to have more kids than you feel confident you can parent well. [/quote]
