Nothing is sexier to a woman than a man with a V. Trust me, I know. They thank me for it. It's sexual freedom. No contraceptives, no condoms, zero fear of pregnancy. I can barely remember life before the V.

I think is ALWAYS a disservice to your first kids to have more with a second/third spouse.
It’s not about money.
I agree. One family is enough. So glad I never had to deal with this with my parents, nor have my kids had to deal with it with it with my ex and I. Ex is now deceased so there is no chance of any extras coming along. Having a bunch of half-siblings and blended families is just messy and selfish.
Who are you to decide one family is enough? My husband's ex cheated on him and took the kids to be with her AP and restricted access. He was only a child support check and extra's upon demand. So she gets to be "happy" with her AP - she isn't actually happy but that is a different issue and he should never get to marry or have kids? Your ex is probably lucky he is deceased as you are probably the parent who would not let him see the kids to be spiteful.

I totally get where you are coming from, OP.
You aren't splitting resources. You aren't going to get more - its all a guideline. If 4 kids is a lot, you were completely selfish having that many.

I’m a second wife who had my DH get a V. Everyone breathing easier though he’s been great at picking up the slack from my loser XH. DH’s first wife has not remarried, but I could completely understand why she might have wanted DH to not have more kids when he married me. Resources are finite. Why cause friction and drama just to have an “ours”.
