Spinoff thread: What's better -- 2 kids, or 3?

I know I am stopping at 2

I got 4

I want to stop at 2.

The wife...we will see

I don't remember what it was like.. We have 6 now.. Pretty easy with 6..might have more later, not now though.

Stopped at 13, seems to be about the right amount to me.

Has your wife brought it up at all?

shite man!! You must have ran out of ammo

I've got a 3 and 1 year old. I always said i wanted 3 or 4, but now that i have 2 i don't know if i want more. I do, but I don't.

I know i didn't care that much at the time, but growing up my dad and my grandpa never missed a sporting event in my lifetime, never, and that means the world to me that they were always there for every basketball game, every baseball game, every soccer game, no matter how far away it was. Granted my sister was 4.5 years younger than me, and i was the only male on 1 side of the family and the only male in town on the other, so i was sort of the main attraction for my grandparents, on top of being the oldest grandchild on both sides.

I don't want to get to the point where i'm choosing what child i get to see play that day b/c they are all busy doing something.

I also plan on sending my kids through catholic schools and having 3 of them at Catholic High might be $40-50k a year by then for all of them.

Unless they're both girls, then you try for the third and hope that god doesn't play a sick trick on you.

I got a buddy from HS who has 4 girls and a 5th on the way. He almost shot himself in the face when he got the news about the fifth... All of my friends and I joke with him about being the unluckiest man on the planet and when we all heard the news, we asked; "Still gonna try for a boy?" he just said, "frick you, no."

1 kid, I'm done.

Have 3 girls

Had a neighbor with 4 girls, he just finally said frick it, not going through this again.

Apparently you can pick the sex through IVF now though.
