couple. People speculate and say 4 is too many or one is not enough. WHere do you stand? 1,2,3,4,5 What's a good number and at what number does it become too many?

I think 2 is good. You have a married couple that are two ppl and they replinsh the earth with 2 more ppl. That is fine.
1 kid is not good (i was a only kid) plus they get into the only-kid syndrome. I can see now only kids how more bratty and spoiled they are.
3 kids I always thought was good but I have several diff friends w/that many that say it's not because your out numbered.(kids vs. parents)
4 or more is crazy but if that is your thing then go for it. My bff has 6 kids and says she doesn't understand why everyone doesn't. I said if everyone did have 6 kids we would be so overpopulated it would not be funny. So it all balances out in the end. It's a personal decision, and me personally 2 is far more than enough!!

I always thought 4 sounded like too many, I say 3 is perfect. It depends on the couple though, do you want a lot of kids? The sound of children in the home sounds wonderful but how many could you support? My sister is going to be 30yrs old in september and has 7 children...not kidding! She's nuts but her and her husband can handle it financially no problem, it's what they wanted and she has an awesome ability to deal with all 7 children (the oldest being 10), and she doesnt anger easily.

I think you should have as many as you are comfortable with. I have 4 and it's great, if my husband could have supported 8 I would have had that many. I think 4 is a good number. I always wanted to have an even number children so 1 is not left out.

I believe that you will feel when you family is complete. I don't think you should put a number to the amount of children you are going to have. I don't think a number can be predetermined. I have 2 children and know I want at least 1 more. I always base it on how I feel. I know I want at least 1 more now and after 5 I may feel the same way or I may feel as though I am done...I don't know how I will feel than, I only know that right now I know I want at least 1 more.

as many as any woman can pop out. as carlos menica made a point...the more you have the better chance you have of one of them making it and supporting you later.
okay all seriousness.....as many as you can afford with only one parent. you can't plan everything on both parents living forever. things happen. As for overpopulating the earth, that's not possible. too many children die in accidents, parents killing children, strangers killing children, people dying of cancer, AIDS, drunk drivers, and other various diseases. People murdering other people. Every day you turn on the news and you hear of at least ten more people dead. another twenty when you read a local paper that weren't announced on the news. Then the ones that don't get announced. the people you know. so overpopulation, is not the problem you think it is.

I would think 2 is a good number. But if you can support your kids comfortably you could stop at whatever number pleases you. Your kids become 'too many' when you can't support them easily.

I dont think the answer lies in people and their speculations but the answer lies in what you and your family need. I would say that as long as you are happy and healthy and able to take care of these children then have as many as you want
