[QUOTE="black4vcobra, post: 16636997, member: 82394"] Damn you for making rational points that make me reconsider my decision! Of course I don't know anything about your daughter's personality but if she's an introvert and doesn't end up in a long term, committed relationship she will definitely struggle when you and your wife reach the end of your lives. My son is only 2 but he's outgoing and I'm sure he'll probably do just fine with the ladies when he gets older. I anticipate living another 50 years +/- a few years so he will be well established in his life by then and might even have his own adult child/children. I do have 6 nieces/nephews and my son and my sister's son are close in age and will probably be best friends later on in their childhood. I know cousins aren't the same as siblings but they can be close if the kids spend a lot of time together. Siblings aren't always a guaranteed good thing though. I know plenty of people who essentially hate their siblings. My father-in-law has 2 brothers and a sister and hasn't talked to any of them in 15+ years except when their mother died and his sister called to tell him that. He didn't even go to her funeral. Also, I am the oldest of 3. Until I got to my late teenage years I didn't even want my sister and probably close to 25 before I wanted my brother. My sister was the princess and my brother the baby so they got it easier from my parents than I did. $1200/month daycare is the other kick in the pants. I will not pay that for another child. It is a 99% of the way to a dealbreaker on it's own. My career is going well enough that we could easily get by on just my income for a few years so I guess it's possible that my wife could stay home. We anticipate moving next year so that is another thing that would have to happen before a 2nd came. I guess we'll see what happens. [/QUOTE]
