Planning A Second Baby

If you had a choice what would you have – two babies or one? Think. Is it unfair to the child to be alone, should he have the company of his sibling so that he always has somebody, to call his own, not just in childhood or at times when you might be away but for his entire life. As parents of a single child will you be too protective, thus inhibiting his full normal development? Perhaps you have decided your child must have a sibling but it is not practical. If your jobs keep you very busy, one more child could upset all your plans and tie you down to the house in the early precious years of career development. Then, perhaps, you should plan for only one child and try to frequently provide him the of his cousins or friends. You should however, bring him up with normal discipline, so that he learns that he will not always get whatever he wants.
