the ideal family size should be 2 kids only in these days. In this modern senario, we can spend our earnings on kids up to size 2 in nos.School,education,books and all items related to kids are so many expensive in these days. If your earning is limited then you can not bear the expenditure of kids.

Two would be an ideal number for me. Hopefully one boy and one girl!

yeah, I use to think it would be fun to have 4 children but I am pretty happy that we just have 2. I know that my in laws would like to see us have one more to have a grandson but both my husband and I are pretty content with the two girls we have and feel that having a boy is just plain overated!

My ideal family size started out with just one with my first hubby but I lost it. Then we had a son. Now in my second marriage my hubby wanted a son we had one I always wanted to have a daughter and so we tried one last time and we were blessed with her. So my ideal size of a happy family of kids is 3.

Family of a man should not be large. Only 2 kids would be good in these days. Many needs and items always to be managed for them. In present senario kids must be 2, may be boy or both same. Not more than that. Today is time of competetion, so we can achieve that if we have limited and less liabilities on us.

I have no ideal family size...we have 6 children now (5 from my previous marriage, 1 with my fiance and we also have one angel baby in heaven) I heard one lady say...Saying there are too many children is like saying there are too many flowers. I thought it was cute and quaint. Right now we are not trying for any more children since the loss of our daughter, but neither of us know what the future holds for our family :)
