What is your ideal age gap for children?  |
|
I only have 2 children, ages 13 and 8. Their 5-year gap is just fine with me, and I think longer than that will create a generation gap somehow. If it will be lesser than 3, I think me and my wife will have a hard time to take care of them.
So, what's the age gap of your children? What should be ideal gap for you, and why?

| 11. home992 (22) | 8 months ago | I think the age gap between two children is no big number of the .Baby can also help parents to take care of samll, if the parents work very busy, so much for their children to take care of children, which is the opinion of a good thing, you say that?

| 12. angkat14 (24) | 8 months ago | I think around 3-4 years is a good age gap between children, because as you said, the older one would be big enough (at least you can already tell them off when they're misbehaving) but not really that old that they would not understand each other.
3-4 year gap is enough for the older one to take care of the little one, but at the same time not that old to play with the little one. XD

13. kingpong (105) | 8 months ago | i think 2-3 years. because it would give you time to take care of the first child and at the same time the age is not that far, they can play and get along toghother as if they are friends

14. kun2349 (7239) | 8 months ago | Most ideal age gap should be around 3-5 years, just like me and my brother, a difference of just 3 yrs between us^_^
BUt if there's anything period that's beyond 5 yrs, i think it should be quite ok too because the older sibling will be able to take care of the younger one too.. haha=D I believe, the older one should be more matured and in turn will be able to teach his sibling fairly well too^_^

15. GardenGerty (20233) | 8 months ago | I liked having mine three years apart, it was nice. They used to say that if your kids were at least four years apart they had the advantages that only children also have. I have sisters a lot older and younger than I and a brother about 3.5 years younger. We have been close as adults.

16. pam210 (329) | 8 months ago | I have 4 children but they are spaced far apart. My 1st 2 with my ex husband are 4 yrs apart and my younger 2 with my husband are a little less than 2 yrs apart. I really think it is better to have them spaced closer together. My older 2 have never really been close and even now at 22 and 18 they aren't really friends. My younger two at 4 and 6 play together all of the time and I think they will be really close. Although it was hard having 2 in diapers at the same time I think overall it is easier when they are closer in age.

17. SViswan (4201) | 8 months ago | I think it's a personal choice and how comfortable the couple are in working with the kids. My sons are more than 6 years apart. And that's the way I wanted it...so that I could spend the same kind of time with each of them (at that particular age). But if I was career oriented, I would prefer to have had them closer in age, so that they would grow up together. Whatever the age, it is tough bringing up kids (especially when it's more than one)....so, it depends on how you want to space the physical hardship (sleepless nights and work all round the clock).

18. jimbo88 (204) | 8 months ago | I don't have children because i still have young age. If i become a father, i will give age gap 2 years. I think more than 2 years is not good them.

19. HouseKat (725) | 8 months ago | I have 2 kids, and they are 2.5 years apart. I think it is the perfect age gap because they were born far enough apart that my son was potty trained (except at night) before my daughter was born. He was able to walk and talk and understand when I told him he had to wait if I was doing something with the baby. Now that they are older, I still think it is the perfect age because they are still close enough in age that they enjoy spending time together and playing together. At 11 & almost 14 there is not a lot of sibling rivalry because they enjoy a lot of the same things, and when they don't they are perfectly happy to do their own thing.

20. kellys3ps (3599) | 8 months ago | For me the ideal age gap is 18 months. Our kids who have that age gap get along muchbetter with eachother and have less fighting than the ones with a larger age gap.
