[quote=Anonymous]I had one child for 4.5 years. The issue is, you are rarely if ever off duty. As soon as you get one quietly set up, reading, doing art, watching a movie - the other one needs something. Additionally, the worst part is - they fight. NO SOONER do I pick up my elementary age child, we don't even get out of the parking lot, and the bickering begins. Now, the greatest joy of having more than one is when they laugh and giggle and play together. But the fighting.... It takes a toll. And the constant comparing, why does SHE get this but I only get that, why do you treat HER differently, et cetera. When I have only one of the two of them- it doesn't matter which one - I am able to truly focus on her. It's so calm and enjoyable. When they are alone with me, they are both very pleasant children. But man do they know how to push each other's buttons. [/quote]
