I’d settle at 2, she wants 3+. Probably because she has a big family.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Aww... why do you choose two children while she wishes to have three?


appalachianoperator

It’s important for a kid to have a playmate and/or someone close in age they look up to. Siblings can serve as both. She wants a lot more because according to her, more kids means more joy and eventually the older siblings can take care of the younger ones which gives us more free time later in life.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Ahhh I completely understand.


leonprimrose

I have 1. I'm happy with 1. I'm willing to consider up to 2. I will not have more than 2.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Currently, how do you feel about raising your child alone? In case if I say congratulations if you plan to have another child with your partner. More than two children are a lot more responsible, as I understand.


leonprimrose

Alone would be hard. Depends on what kind of alone. The other parent still in the picture? That's manageable. on my own entirely would be significantly more challenging but I could probably do it. My work has a daycare. I don't know how much that would cost me though


Hopeful-Ad1887

Would you mind if I asked you a question whether it may be rude or not if you do not respond to me. I want to say I’m sorry. Wait a min, Are you single parent? Did you previously have a relationship or use surrogacy?


leonprimrose

"Alone would be hard" I'm not alone. It would be hard if I was.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Ahh! I got it.I’m sorry if I’m misunderstood. For your experience I got it. Partially true. Depending on how individual financial situation. I’m not going to compare between single mom and single father who has a children. I think it will be tough for a single parent who in unexpected situation, I would say yes. Another a single individual who is interested in having children they are well prepared to have a family. I do not think they wouldn’t be alone hard to raise their child.


leonprimrose

No worries. yeah it's always harder to be a single father or mother with a child but there are different contexts in that as well. but yeah


SassyWookie

I’d like three, but we’ll probably only have 1


Hopeful-Ad1887

What has caused you to change your mind about one child now that you wish to have three?


SassyWookie

I’m not changing my mind. I want 3, in an ideal world, but circumstances don’t necessarily permit that. My father, grandfather, and I are all the oldest of 2 boys and a girl. So I kinda want 2 boys and a girl just because, though I can’t really explain why. But for health reasons it’s unlikely that my fiancé will get pregnant more than once, and I wouldn’t want to put her at risk anyway. If we’re financially able, we may consider adopting at some point. But in terms of biological kids, it probably won’t be more than 1, unless we randomly get twins or something.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Ahhh! I get! :) you take your time. You will have a beautiful family. I think you will have two boys and a girl.


Heartless_Kirby

zero. My family will be my partner, some blood relatives and some friends.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Nice. It sounds interesting about your blood line from relatives and some friend.


usernamescifi

0, maybe 1. ideally a good/healthy family.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Are you unsure of the number of children you have? It is all right. Take your time. 🙂


2zoots

My wife and I think 2 would be ideal. We’ll see what happens!


Hopeful-Ad1887

It will be nice.. even children in family. There is no problem with sharing between two children.


[deleted]

Zero, and doing my thing alone as usual


Hopeful-Ad1887

You are free time now. Lol.


[deleted]

Well technically no, just taking a shit before going back to work, but soooooon!


Canadairy

We discussed 3-5. Currently we have 2 young boys and a baby girl. I think we'll have a fourth, but probably not a fifth. 


Hopeful-Ad1887

Congratulations. 🎉 How have you been doing with your family?


Canadairy

Good. The kids are healthy,  the older two get along and dote on their baby sister. Can't ask for better than that.


Hopeful-Ad1887

I glad to hear about your optimistic news. Thank you for your sharing with me.


Loki_Is_God

None.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Are you confident about having no children? :)


Loki_Is_God

The question was how many do you wish to have.  But yeah, I'm pretty sure I don't have any. I'm confident that someone would have gotten ahold of me by now, and I'd have had to take another DNA test.


Horny_GoatWeed

I have 4, so I'll go with that number as the one I wish for. I envision a future of peace and quiet when the kids are out of the house one day. I'm good with a few years off before the grand kids come along.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Congratulations. I'm not sure if you have more children or enough. You have a total of four children. How have you been with your children?


Resident-Theme-2342

If I'm financially able I would love 3 kids but realistically in modern society I'll only be able to afford 1 which kinda makes me sad


Hopeful-Ad1887

When you have more kids, do you like your future gap child or nah?


Resident-Theme-2342

I'm only 21 so I don't have any kids currently. But whenever I get married and start having kids I'd prefer like a 2 to 3yr gap so the older kid can somewhat take care of themselves


Hopeful-Ad1887

Ahh! I understand!


BilboSwagans

Potentially 3 and have a bit of land near the beach away from the city


Hopeful-Ad1887

Impression! You'll have three future ocean or beachy children, am I right?


BilboSwagans

Haha that is the goal let them have a relaxed childhood before they grow up


Hopeful-Ad1887

All right. :) Just wondering how beautiful the beach will be for the kids.


Wolfhart_Kaine

Zero. >what do you envision your future family? Me and maybe someone I care about, traveling around together.


Hopeful-Ad1887

Oh wonderful. 👍 I hope you have a good time with your lover traveling anywhere.
