On parenting.... 1, 2 or 3 kids?

One / two/ three ?? This is a constant worry factor for parents- how many children we ought to have? Of course factors like social, economical  and family play a vital role in taking this decision.

Just as any other organization, if all the members are good team players and if the family runs a smooth course, it is good to have a big family.

What happens if a life event occurs? Please note that this is strictly my opinion and based on personal stories.

Indian parents normally prefer more than one child. The constant refrain is even if something happens ( note: here something means death) there is still one more. The ‘safety in numbers’ stood tall.

But mind you, THIS IS JUST NOT SO!!   If a life event like death strikes once of the children, then the other one cannot ever compensate. There is always the elephant in the room.
