Do you raise your eyebrows at people with 4 children?

[AnxietyForever]

Just above really? I always find 2 or 3 children are seen as the 'norm', what about 4 children?

Good grief, no! I love seeing big families. I'd have liked one myself, although I am grateful for the three wonderful ones we have. I'd have had five or six if we'd been able. Big families are joyful.

Just just think about the size of families among my group of friends (1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3,3 and 5).
All born and raised Londoners in out 40s and 50s.

Yet when I think about the generation up they all had 4+.

But no, wouldn't bat an eye lid.

No I admire them. I watched Life after Life recently with a family with 5 kids. There was a scene where they were sitting round the room as adults talking and I thought how lovely it looked. I'm one of 2 and have 2 but admire larger families
