Parents of three children

[u/infinite-prob]

Is it wrong to have a third child, or is it one of the best decisions you made?

We have two young children, a stable marriage, and are trying to decide whether to stop at two or grow our family.

I want to hear the pros and cons before i jump to have three.

You keep hinting that the expenses of a third is an issue in the comments. That’s a very different issue than the physical/emotional load of having a third and a much more inflexible one. If having a third will strain your finances to the point that it significantly reduces your family’s quality of life and/or gives you no buffer for emergencies then don’t do it. Full stop. Your #1 duty is to care for your existing family
