    very true, you dont have to if you dont want to.
    some couples dont have children cos they dont want to. i know heaps of them. it's a personal choice, and others shouldnt tell you what to do. but unfortunately, they just do.
    maybe they can help pay your child rearing costs too.
    a colleague was telling me that if we had another boy, we MUST try for a girl afterwards. none of his business!!
    boy or girl doesnt matter to us, and 2 is all we'd like. the same way 1 child is what is you would want.

    Danni - I sometimes think we should've just had one. Not coz I don't love the others or anything, but coz she would have so much more. Coz we could have so much more.
    I do have to say, once you've had the 3rd, every one does just expect that that is it. No more. 3 is plenty. This one wasn't expected, but I feel like people think I'm an idiot for having another one. For wanting this one iykwim.
    Its your life, your body & your choice. I know there's no way I could've ever stopped at one, but thats me
    I do have a few friends who only have 2, but they waited a while & have about 7 years between their kids. & for at least 2 of them they are happy with that. They aren't having any more.
