i was thinking. how many children is too many? should there be a limit of how many children u can have?

i guess if u are able to take care of all the children its ok to have as many as u want. but if u cant take care of a lot of kids u shouldn't have a lot. but then again who is to say what is the RIGHT number of kids.

but ive heard of people having 15 even 20 children. thats a lot of people living in one place. i dont even think i would WANT 20 kids. i think 3 would be good for me.

what do u guys think? how many kids is too many?
 
No number of how many children are too many, It's up to each parents who would want more children and how many is enough for them. With me I always wanted one boy, and one girl. But, I end up with two boys instead. I wouldn't mind having another baby, hoping it'll be a girl next time. ;)
 
I think that it would depend on how good the parents are and whether they can handle it or not. Overall, I would say that having over 6 is too many. I've seen couples having over 10 kids because they believe that God told them so. I read an article about this couple that just had their 17th kid (or 16th?) because God didn't stop them. They felt that they would keep doing it until God told them to stop. Now, that is what I would call... CRAZY!

haha very funni Endymion....


Umm I don't know what to say, but to be honest I don't know how is it possible to have so many children, when I know what it like to raise just 3.....

And now RR is in my life so that's totally of 6 children.....WOW!
 
well, i think it basically on their budget, responible, their loving, and handles. So, for me i rather 4 is enough LOL. So far, will have 3. Everybody are different theory.
 
Money is not important. Love, caring, sharing and have patience are important. You don't have to have money for a big house, big yard, a rich lifestyle. Children don't need all that, They need the love and caring that their parents would show them. ;)

I agree, Cheri. Love is very important and is always first place. :werd:

But money might also help to be able to buy them quality food, quality care, and a quality education.

Plus, cheap property for families to live in tends to be often near unsafe places for children. Low-income housing, for example, may be near a plant that pollutes junk into the air. Because of the situation, children are more likely to develop asthma. See what I'm saying?

Money can't buy love, but it can help you give your best to children if you already love them.
 
i used to think 3, but with my girls's father 2 enough cuz i am unhappy with him. when he found out i got tube tied up he was upset he wanted more, 3 or 4

Yes, I'm with you. Yes I’m agreeing that the money and love are not equal but…. If you want to have start a family then make sure that you have healthy financially secure to achieve kids’ bright future with plenty of opportunity, also happy and healthy and have loving support parents.

I don’t married for children but love. I believe to enjoy my marriage life first before start a family because we know it’s big step and mainly responsible to start a family. That’s why we waited for 7 years before start a family. First enjoy our marriage life, traveling, save up to build our dream home and then start a family….I believe to protect my children from all of the "negative" parts of childhood. The children deserves loving home, healthier feelings, respect and have parent's loving support in caring way. It’s safe environment to have loving parents. I can't image how does it feel to being poor and raising a child in poverty? Its hassle and stress.. I know what’s this because I had been through out the kind of life I grew up with struggle and social assistance family. It’s horrible.

I want to give my children more freedom to learn anything than misery/burden them with money struggle or force them go to work to improve their parent’s money struggle on foods and drinks. It’s unfair for the children to suffer like this.

Yes I can’t provide my children with everything but they are healthy and happy. It’s mainly important is able to put food in their stomachs, a roof over their head and clothes on their back.

With all due respect, I believe people who must have kids are the selfish. They didn’t think twice before start a family when they know they are still struggle with money to provide the foods and drink. I feel sad for the children who play with dirty street or sleeping in the mud, they can't realize why their parents bring them into this world and make them to suffer like this. I admire the people who don’t want to have children because they believe they are not good parents, can’t give children love and attention, no money or not yet. It shows that they care about children’s safe environment.

Look at a lot of parents are bitter, uneducated, and mean. Their children are also bitter, uneducated, and mean. Many of them are criminals. Half of them are already dead. I won't bring my children into this mess because I know from my experience what poverty alike. Thank God that I spent many years at boarding school to learn a lot of positive from them than learn from my parents.

They produce kids like animals because of their religion. They don't want to use condoms or birth control because they think it is sin. They say that the God would take care of them. *shake the head*

The children would give anything to go to school and have a positive future instead of being force to do "slave" work for parents. No child should be forced to give up their childhood to bring their family out of debt or help their siblings. I feel horribly sad for all the children who have 10 to 20 siblings...

It's parent's job to raise their children if they want to have them, not children because it's them who bear babies, not children.. It's okay if the children help their parents with chores, but not full time... they need to consider their future education. I feel sad for children who have no freedom for their future.


It's up to every parents who want to have more children but not expect anything from their children to do their work for their parents to help their babies all the time but with helping chore is okay.

I notice that parents who bear a lot of babies to get money from social and tax... which it's not right... is no love bond between them and children... but money...

To me, 2 is enough. I don't mind to have 3 if there're "accident"... :D

Depend on some couples who don't want to have children... What would you consider them to if they don't want to have any children?

It's depend how you feel if you can give your love to from one to six children and can spend your time on them...

Some parents can give their 6 children love and support but to me, 3 is enough for my love, support and time.
 
For me, 1 is enough, but in my heart, I would love to have 2 kids. I am hoping to have another one before I get too old.

Money doesn't buy, like Cheri said. It's LOVE, and children are like puppies, you want one, and you raise them for all YOUR life. You build love, cherish, and caring when children are around. I was glad I have a little boy and he brighten my day EVERY DAY when I see him. He meant EVERYTHING to me, and I love him to death!!
 
but still money need to be count to support them living as foods, their health, clothes, and as their needs. They can grows as lives.
