I believe the question was meant "if you have children, how many".Why did you leave -0- off the poll?
<--empty quiver.....

Please do not take threads on having children as personal attacks or affronts.
What about legitimate or illegitimate?How many children do you have? Natural or adopted.
That is true.I'm sorry - I didn't mean that as an indicator of being offended. I was merely curious. Seems like there are a good many single people here, and -0- would be a common poll choice.
I win!!

Anyway, I believe my parents would vote for "Enough" if you had that as a vote option.

My parents would agree with yours concerning our family.... both my parents and my in-laws think we are absolutely certifiable for having three kids, let alone the fourth who is due in September. We've clearly not listened to our parents.
Yeah, the worst thing done to my uncle and his wife by my grandparents was by their telling my aunt and uncle (who couldn't have kids) that there would STRONG disapproval of any adoptions they were to do - that adopted kids were weird, caused problems etc... in my grandfather's medical practice experience.My parents have not rejoiced at any of our birth announcements. And they have specifically advised against adoption, but could not provide a single reason. We have not obeyed our parents in this either because it is definitely not of the Lord.
I am curious how many children PB members have. I have noticed that reformed christians tend to have slightly larger families. And the Dutch tend to have really large families.
So how many do you have?
BTW No prizes for the "winner"
The worst thing a good friend of mine was told is that "you were a mistake" by her parents, and its not just been in a time of stress - it's been done even normally. It's caused so much damage to this girl's soul and it+other family issues have served to harden her so much to Christianity its depressing to think about.This is my summation... Irreligious, materialistic and narcisstic people do not want children, because they think of them as liabilities, drudgeries and they tremble at the prospect of giving any love and nurture to anyone but themselves. The worst thing a parent could tell a kid in a moment of anxiety or hardship is that they regret having children. Granted, breeding like a bunny-rabbit doesn't by implication make one a stellar Christian if they are at all. So, don't misunderstand me.
I'm going to have a whole litter of rugrats.
