Yes, of course. BUt it's also none of your business if it isn't your marriage.

That is one of the more terrible ideas I have read on this site.

Yes, stupid. I don't know where this adage came from (1950s?) but it is just wrong. Another child compounds the stress in the already unstable family

Is this a joke? If you're marriage is already shakey, then HELL NO to more kids!

I cannot fathom how having more kids would HELP a marriage. Kids add so much stress to a marriage.

Yes, and it's also stupid to stay together "for the sake of the children".

Just out of curiosity (not my situation). Imagine the following scenario. A married couple with two kids is facing difficulties. To "fix" their marriage, they decide to have a third kid. Still marital problems. Then they decide to have a fourth kid (age difference between 1st and 4th kid is 10 years, fwiw). Still marital problems. They end up deciding to divorce.

I find this to be rather stupid and, to some degree, selfish. Why bring new kids to a bad family situation? Am I missing something?
