    How many children is enough. Back in the days it use to be in the 10's, now we are becoming more conscience of our choice.

    I see it as:

    1 - spoilt :mad:

    2 - ideal but safe

    3 - middle child syndrome

    4 -evens it all out :)

    5 -is likely to make you bald and twitching

    6 -Do I need say more? :eek:

    But if you see past all the years to raise them in the end it is us who benefit at family celebrations, elderly age etc... So how many do you have or do you want?

    I think that 3 is more than enough, I will pay it safe with 2.

    I'll stop at 3 because I don't want to have to buy a bigger car.

    You got to think about your car before you plan for kids.

    :D

    I had 3 then fostered 2 then adopted one of the fostered.
    I found it as cheap to feed 5 (7 if you count the parents) as it was to feed 3.Having said that it was difficult to give them all that they needed,but i am happy to say they have all turned out to considerate and loving adults.
    I still have the last one at home (17) and wouldn't change a thing.

    Depends on your income and your temperament. Bringing a child into the world is not a small thing. If you do not have the ability to provide for many children, then you'd be better off with one or two.

    India is already a Massively Populated Country and I guess it ranks 2nd after China :) in Population :eek:

    So I'd like to say : Hum Do Hamare 2 :p

    Having 2 kids is Ideal but in India it is lesser the better

    Well I love kids - I would like to have 10+ but if my wife doesn't want that many it will be kind of hard..... So 4 minimum! 2 boys and 2 girls would be supreme!
