And you can't possibly give all of these kids, you know, attention or it's not healthy for them.

Which is interesting to me because, I mean, in my grandparents and great grandparents, you know, generation, like...

These are people who were growing up maybe 100 or so years ago.

It was very normal.

On my mom's side of the family, there was one generation that was 13 siblings, another generation that was 18 siblings.

And this was not a super duper long time ago.

These people weren't necessarily working on farms.

They were often living in cities.

But also that feels a part of...

I do think there was also some, I saw some survey, I was reading a book, I believe Child Free by Choice is the name of the book.

And at one point in the book, the author brings up some research or a study that indicates that even women who have only one child are seen very similarly to women who have none.

So it kind of indicates to me that there is almost no right number.

It's more of like a judgment on women's choices more broadly, like there is no right number of children to have.

And I'll say as a person with no children, one child is not the same as no child.

I have no children.

I do whatever I want all the time.

If I had a child, I would not be doing whatever I want all the time.

Those are just simply not the same experiences, very basically.

That is 100% more children than I currently have.

I don't think I don't think that my life would be the same.
