Was just wondering how much your financial situation is a factor (if at all) in the decision to have only one child?
I don't think I want any more children, but if that ever changed, it would make quite a difference to us financially, mainly because we would sooner or later have to move into a bigger place as ds's room couldn't fit another bed in it!
Also, although it's a long way off still, we would like to be able to consider sending ds to a private school (depends on what the education situation is at that time - things are changing here in Germany, hopefully for the better), which I don't think would be an option if we had two or more.
It's not the major factor in whether we want more children or not, but it's something to consider (for us, anyway).
What about you?
