I don't have any kids yet but some day I will want to have some and I think it would be nice 2 kids , one boy and one girl . Most family sizes where I live have 4 or 4 people living in the house . 2 parents and then 2 or 3 kids . I don't think i would like to have a bunch of kids but I want to have some .

I don't have any children yet and am not sure that I want to have any but my mom really really wants me to have her some grandbabies . I was kind of thinking if I had kids I would like to adopt . Most people I know have 2 or 3 kids in there families but there are some with much bigger families that I know . I am from a mixed family and have 4 brothers and 3 sisters because I have different mothers and fathers .

I have one child a boy. Well he is not a child anymore. Now he is 16 and a teenager. Of course that is a whole new set of rules and learning and I wish he was still small sometimes. However, now he is becoming a man and learning to live his own life...all I can do is be there for him when he needs me.

I have five children . Four that belong to us and another child that came to live with us after her own mohter called and asked if we wanted her so she became a part of our family . Most people in our area have two to three children but you still run into some bigger families that have ten and twelve children and then those that only have one child . I would have had more if I had been able to and always said if I ever won any money that I would like to adopt a baby . I have always felt that I was born to be a mother .

I don't have any kids yet but my boyfriend has been talking about us having some . Not sure if I am ready for for kids yet or not , would like to wait a little longer . I think I would like to have 2 a boy and a girl but who knows since we don't know what we are going to get when we have them maybe i will have 2 boys or 2 girls or better yet twins and get it over all in one shot :)

now a days there are small families . in the days of our parents they have 10nto 12 member in a family . i have only two son only and have no daughter i think that there should be5to 6 member which have three or four female member because i feel too much difficutilies being single female in the family because no one is helping hand for me in the family .so i will have to do multivarious jobs and look after the whole family all alone.
