Lot's of people like to have 4-5 kids because they think that their kids can help them of they were old. But in my own opinion, the mere fact nowadays, the parents must think the future of their kids if they can give them a good future. I want 1-2 kids only because I can't raise them if they were plenty, I can't give them good school etc. How about you?

I wanted three kids or more because I wanted a happy and noisy family. Its just that, its not applicable nowadays where its harder to raise up so many kids. Because I delivered my kids thru Ceasarian section, it makes me decide easily for I have no choice but to bear maximum of three kids only. Two to three I think will be enough for me. Have a great day ahead!

Well originally I wanted two or three kids. I had one child then met my husband who had 5 kids and we got married. Then I gave birth to two more kids. So we now have 8 kids between the two of us. I would not trade my kids for the world. They have all been such blessings in their own ways. There are 3 that are adults now and two of them have given us some beautiful grandkids. I do have to say though that financially it has been hard on us with having more kids. After I had my second last boy my husband could no longer work due to medical issues. Then my last baby came as a big surprise even though we were being careful. But I would never want to change this.

Hello lisa..Well, it's okay to have lots of kids but when I read your comment, I find it that you don't have a problem with your husband's kids because they are all adult and they can have their own work,. Maybe it is a blessings for you because maybe those kids help you someday.. Well, thanks for sharing your comments with us and have a nice day ahead. Godbless

I think I would like to have at least two, 4 will be plenty; but there is a lot to worry about just producing them; whether you are affordable and the parents will have to teach them as they grow so they don't turn into a bad generation.

Hello mermaidivy..Yeah, you were right. If the people like us that our income is not really huge, it is better to have kids 1-2 so that we can raise them and can give a good future. But here in our place, whoever the poor, they also have plenty of kids because they don't have any busy work..that's why their kids go to the other house to be maids.. Well, thanks for sharing your comments with us and have a nice day ahead. Godbless
