Would you have another baby if one child didn’t want you to?

[MyPeachTiger]

I’d love to have another baby for various reasons. I already have 2 teens and a toddler. One teen would love another sibling but the other does not like children and would rather I didn’t.
She’s a typical teenager with the sulking at the moment, sometimes it feels like she rules the roost because of her meltdowns, I have to consider her feelings and needs but also surely I am allowed to consider mine too.
I know you have to take your other children into consideration when having another child, but has anyone here stopped because their child wanted them to? Do you believe it’s none of their business and their opinion shouldn’t change your mind? Are you for or against older children ‘controlling’ your wants?
Not intending this thread to be judgemental, id just like to hear from other mums with bigger families what you would/did do in this situation and if there were negative or positive ‘consequences’ to your choice.

Why on earth would you even want more when you already have teens AND toddler? Makes no sense. Sounds like a nightmare to me.

No, because she's talking about what she wants at this moment and you're thinking about the rest of your and their lives. I've got a nearly 12, 9, 4 and 1yo. I find having 'littlies' and 'big ones' means it's not too difficult to divide and conquer if there are different aged activities on the go, between myself and dh or sometimes Granny. I know their friends parents well too so we can share lifts etc. But actually they don't always divide the way you expect, right now the 4 and 9yo are thick as thieves and although my oldest is ND and does sometimes find the noise hard, he also adores the little ones. Aside from normal bickering, they all have lovely relationships. If you both want it and you think you can manage, go for it. Not that you asked anyone else what their opinions were 😉
