    imho, there is no such thing as an ideal number of kids. the ideal number for me is the number i can support with my income, making them live a comfortable life, sending them to good schools and giving them, once in a while luxuries.

    mahirap kasi dito sa atin, anak ng anak ang mga tao, tapos, hindi pala kayang pag-aralin. yung iba, pinagtratrabaho pa yung mga anak nila.

    if your income can afford to raise up a dozen, then so be it, as long as you can provide them with the basic needs that they need.

    1 or 2 for me would be ideal. We were six in the family, medyo magulo kami at pag nag-aaway kami nun, hirap na hirap ang parents ko na idisiplina kami. Also, pag sabay-sabay kaming pumapasok sa school, medyo tiring din ang paggawa ng baon, pagplantsa ng damit, maglaba ng uniform, etc.

    Masyadong malaki na rin ang populasyon ng Pinas. Baka in 30 years, nalagpasan na natin ang India or China.

    im ntot yet married but ako i voted for 3 but 2-3 is fine with me, pero di natin masabi kung ilan talaga ibibigay sa atin ni God dba? kahit na tayo ang gagawa, pag di tayo pagpapalain eh wala din i got only one sister, so 2 lang kami magkapatid and 7 years ang difference ang hirap dahil medyo may generation gap na konti dahil halos 10 years na dapat ang ideal age gap is around 3-4 years lang

    actually, if you have all the money and patience in the world, have as many kids as you want.

    but i got a short fuse, so two is best for me and my future wife.

    ekimike says the question is lacking in options.

    IMHO, the poll question is half-flawed.
    Sure, it's good to plan the number of your kids, but life also happens as you go along.
    How can you possibly predict everything?
    Sakaling mabiyayaan kayo ng sapat, e para saan pa yung biyaya kundi para magbigay ng chance mabuhay si Bunsoy?
    Sa 'kin tumpak ang sagot ni happy_gilmore.

    Observations ko lang naman:

    * Merong ayaw magkaanak kasi nagpapayaman pa daw. Tapos pag nakaipon na, too late da heroes. Di na kayang ipanganak yung pinag-ipunan. Yung iba nga, nababaog pa sa kagagamit ng gamot.

    * Meron din namang nage-enjoy muna kasi nothing to be responsible for. Pagtanda naman nila, hirap mag-alaga sa kanila ang iisa o dadalawa nilang anak. Kaya nauuso ang euthanasia at "assisted suicide" sa "developed" countries. Kulang ang young productive sector to take care of an ageing population.

    * Think twice before you entrust your old age to the government. The best social security is still the family. Children are an investment - and investment means sacrifice.

    * Either you sacrifice now and enjoy later, or enjoy now and suffer later. Sa kin, it's better to face challenges while you're hale and healthy than when you're old and weak.

    * Tip: Beware about marrying someone who does not share your ideas about having children.

    * It's also a question of whose plan it is, ultimately.
    I hate to think everything is in my hands (or hers). Overplanning can take the spontaneity out of marriage. Boring 'yun. It's wise to leave some options open. Mahirap magsalita ng tapos.

    OT na ba? Sorry ha.
