What would your response be if your spouse wanted 12 children?

because they wanted a large family but you knew this already

Adoption but only one kid every 10 years.

And they all have to be older kids, not babies. As I don't like doing half-à§§èď work. At the age of 10 a kid isn't ready to move away from parental care, in order for me to move my focus and dedicate my resources for the next one.

I raised four kids at the same time. It was a lot financially. Still is with only two of them.

We won't be able to raise 12 kids but we will raise as many kids as we can to the best of our abilities.

I chuckled when my husband said he wanted enough for a whole soccer team. Deep down he really does want a huge family but we both knew we couldn’t afford that many.

We have 5 and that spreads it pretty thin lol.

@calicuz I knew that
I'd have had that chat way before marriage.

@PlaygirlDizzy really only ever wanted one to have them super spoiled but i’ve thought about having three before 😅
We would’ve needed to have discussed this before the wedding…😱
PlaygirlDizzy · 31-35, F

Actually, only wealthy Muslims can afford the 3 wives allowed in Islam.

If he or she decided to walk out the door and left you with those 12 kids would you be okay with that?
PlaygirlDizzy · 31-35, F
@AngelUnforgiven I will be on first 48
MsChambers · 56-60, FNew
@AngelUnforgiven Excellent point! I have a cousin with 14, crazy lady, lol!
You got that kind of money to afford that many?

Sure, as long as he's the one giving birth and taking on the childcare responsibilities.

@PlaygirlDizzy I know straight away we could not afford that many children, simple economics about facts, override feelings
Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M
Not possible as I don’t want kids
PlaygirlDizzy · 31-35, F
@Moneyonmymind oh no :(
