Well, I come from a family with 4 girls, so I love the whole "big family" thing. After growing up with 3 sisters, I couldn't imagine having a family with only 1 or 2 children; it would be too quiet, lol! So I want anywhere from 3 to 5 kids, depending on how able my husband and I are to support a family of that size.
Hmm...I really love kids!!! I work at a camp with kids.. they light up your day no matter what... so when I get married ..i am definitely having 3 kids!!!
I chose 1-2 because I definitely want one kid.. but id have to admit if I don't have at least 2 I think the one would get lonely. In my family.. there are 4 kids, 3 guys, 1 girl ( that's me ) So maybe 3 would be better because everybody loves all the chaos going on in my house.. there is never any quiet.. never. and I wouldn't change it for the world. So I think that 3 kids is ideal but I would have to have only 1 kid when I was younger.. I just want to party a lot but I want to be a young mommy, and I kind of have an eating disorder.. sometimes I will starve myself when I think I look a little overweight so I'm not sure if I could really have a kid for the simple fact I might get really depressed over gaining the weight.
1 or 2 but even though I have to physically have them, my beau is gonna play a big part in how many, it isn't just up to me- he has to be there and take care of them too, so if he wants three ok, or is set on just one then I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. It's like names I find it kind of funny sometimes how people have their kids names picked out, but they are single or just with a boyfriend not like with the one they are gonna have kids with or pregnant. You have to always take in to consideration your other half b/c it isn't just you any more :)
I picked none..cause right now I watch my sisters kids and they make me not want to have any when I get older. its like the best birth control you could ever give some young girl.
Some times I think at most two. That way my wife and I wouldn't be adding to the overpopulation problem the world is having. Other times I think it would be wrong to not carry out each pregnancy. I have names picked out for three, though, so. I guess three ;)
I'll be honest about myself. I would not want kids until I could support them and could leave them a legacy. I skipped going to a 4 year college to pursue a job and build a nest egg for my future family. I see myself in the future settling down and having some rugrats. 1 to 2. Sending them to private school and having them a backyard/frontyard instead of an apartment playground. I want them to grow up better than I did and live better and not have to worry about things I had to worry about.
One boy and one girl is enough for me. I want to be able to do all the things dads do with their sons and daughters but I don't want an out of control household either. Plus, 18-20 years at home is enough of my life as it is, any more than 2 kids and you're in it for the long haul.
I picked 3-4 because I came from a big family in three generations our family size is over 200.. which is a lot and from me I have 30 first cuzes on one side.
Kids are great I want to have as many as I can or that my wife will give me. I just have to make sure I can afford them, kids are expensive and I want them to have all the best.
I voted for 1-2 kids but I think that it is a decision that I will NEED to make with the mother to be of my children. I am not set in stone with how many I want. The only thing that I would want is to make sure My Girl is will to partake in my Planning of when we have the Kids. and how many years inbetween each kid is what is important to me.
