How many kids are to many?

I will start off by saying, in no way am I telling anyone how many kids they should have. I am just asking opinions on family sizes. I come from a family with one other sibling. Just one sister. Now I have a family of five. Three amazing kids. Now we decided to stop there. Perfect family size for us. What's your perfect family size?

Three is too many. ;)

Heh, just kidding.I have an older sister and a younger brother, sooo....

Anyway, I think it depends on what you can afford. If you can financially provide for 6 kids, have up to 6 kids. If you can't afford them, I think you're being a little unfair to the children , yourself, and the rest of your family.

I hate to conflate money, with love, and children, but we do live in a reality based universe and not a Disney fairy tale. If you have a cramped one bedroom apartment you can barely afford, AND you have one or two children, should you really be looking to get a 3rd? Or even risking it?

Just my opinion, which apparently isn't even worth 2 cents on an upvote! lol

I guess I don't have a perfect family size. I wanted six, but my wife and I ended up with two, and that turned out to be for the best, I think. When it was all said and done, we were happy just to have any children. Now we have two married sons with one grandchild and hopefully more on the way. :)
