[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my friend circle almost all of our fertile parents and grandparents had 4-8 or more kids. Most of us disliked it and in my generation, almost no one has more than 1-3. We thought parenting should be individualized not wholesale. However, likely next generations would see it differently.[/quote] I have four, and it’s kind of group parenting and kind of individual. There were four kids in “Little Women,” and I feel like it’s kind of like that. There are a lot of things that we do as a group or that the kids do together without me. But at the same time they are very much their own individual people with their own lives and interests. There were also 4 women in “sex and the city,” and we all know them pretty well :). They are a group, but it’s not like you can’t possibly get to know four different people and think of them individually. [/quote]
