How many kids do you want/have?

[missten]

For most of my life I wanted no kids and then I started thinking maybe I want two... then for a while I wanted three... now lately I've been wanting like 5.

Im still pretty young and haven't actually had any children yet.
Im just wondering what the norm is these days :)

No more than one child

No more than two children

No more than three children

No more than four children

No more than five children

More than five children

So sorry ! I just realised I forgot to add an option for wanting no children. Leave a comment if that is the case for you !

It might be helpful to try babysitting some kids. That should help you realize what kind of numbers you can handle.

I think 2 is the maximum for me, and it's still hectic. I ended up holding this little girl and got into a crowded elevator while her little brother stood next to me. The brother distracted me for a second trying to sword fight me with an imaginary sword so I tried to parry his blows and tried to counter-attack.

Meanwhile I turn around and the little girl has pushed every freaking floor in the elevator (30 floors in that building). Everyone in the elevator was glaring at me so I just grabbed the brother and ran out as soon as we reached the next floor.

After that we took the stairs and I made the girl walk as a punishment, but she thought it was really funny... I thought it was really funny too so I started laughing on the way up. Then she started racing up the stairs and I had to run after her.

Yeah I nannied right after high school for a family with three young kids and I just had so much love for those children. They're the ones that made me change my mind about having kids in the first place.

[ak666]

Same for me. I never wanted kids for a good while until these two asked me to give them a piggyback ride one night and I tried running around and spinning around while they laughed. They seemed to like me a lot more than the other guys around.

Their mother is a single mother whose father was a veteran who came back with PTSD, drug addiction, and eventually committed suicide. She ended up bringing the kids to a drinking party and I tried to stay as far away from them as possible since I like to drink and be rowdy. I didn't want to be a bad influence.

They still ended up following me around anyway that night.

i have one and one on the way. if we made more money i wouldn't be against having more than two but two seems like a good number for my wife and i

[helloitsmethere]

Three children.
A boy, a girl (close in age) and the last one, the gender doesn't matter.
The fraternal twin gene runs in my family and since the twin gene tends to skip a generation, who knows what might happen :)

[Kitten967]

I have one, don't want another anytime soon. Might have another one in like 5 years but for now I'm happy with just the one

[LaFemmeFatale]

3 or maximum 4 kids, they need caring brothers and sisters :)
I would like to adopt one too.

[LaFemmeFatale]

Thanks for mho

[vonasaurus]

i plan on having at least two fur-babies, but no human children for me.

[vishna]

2-3 would be ideal, but I would go up to 4 if I was adopting.

[JudgmentDay]

None, having my own children is just something that I do not ever felt I was up for or wanted. Unwilling to ever change my mind on it, never had any children and never wanted any of my own children. Don't even have a partner, significant other, etc., and I don't even care to pursue and chase after one or chase after any anymore.

Although I wouldn't mind having a pet or two some day later on at some point, maybe.

[RealandGenuine26]

I am the youngest of five daughters... I would want seven kids. Four girls three boys... but I'll accept whatever im blessed with.

[LastNightmare]

if it's from the one who's in profile pic.. I'll have as many as she wants or else just 5

[missten]

😂😂

[LastNightmare]

you got me right, I love that figure.. it was turn on

[menina]

I didn't want to have kids, but I've changed my mind. My chance of having children is like 1%, so if I ever have them I would like to have 3 kids.

[Kolya]

One or none, it depends on her if she wants, because she have it worse than me, i will support her in her decision whatever it may be

[Máiiréad]

I want at least two but would be okay with three. I don't really want anymore than that though... but hey if it happens then it happens.

[Jemini_Crocket]

Max one (maybe two but I'm not sure about that yet). I'm focusing on my future and future job. I want my possible kid to have a nice family to live with.

[GingerGuy]

Interesting. I went the other way. Always though 2 was ideal, then maybe just 1, now I don't care to have any lol

[Titanic1912]

I want at least two daughters and at least one son. I want a lot of children. If she wants a lot of children, we'll be very happy and loving like crazy!

[Anonymous]

2 girls & 1 boy. So two girls will go shopping with me and the boy will go accompany dad whilst waiting for us to finish shopping XD that's what my mom always say, since my dad always sit at starbucks alone waiting for us

[Luci92]

2 at the very bare minimum... but as many as financially viable.

[NikolasGLT]

Ideally 2 girls and a boy.
wouldn't mind if my partner will want more :)

[Sweetsara27]

I would like to have two or three but with my last relationship I'm starting to think I will never get the chance of a relationship or a family.

[ProfessorScrewEyes]

I would like two, a boy and a girl. However, with the way my romantic life is going, I'm likely to die before ever getting that chance

Who cares what those who want no children want? They're weeding themselves out of the gene pool and are completely irrelevant.

[goaded]

They share the vast majority of their genes with every other human, and can have a positive impact on humankind, if only by not having such a arrogant attitude as yours.

[SnowHearth]

I have 3 daughters (including a pair of twins), not planning in having more.

[BluesBoy]

Dont have dont want and dont understand why people want some.

[Anonymous]

We have 2 kids (both boys) and are all done!! My kids are 11 & 6 1/2... so over the baby stage and never going back.

[Ali55sven]

I dont want children, but what do i know as i get older i might change my mind.

[Iraqveteran666]

15 but unfortunately my wife says she's not up for that.

[goaded]

Clearly, you need more wives. Six or seven should do. :)

[helloitsmethere]
