I am always curious how people with umpteen amounts of children afford it. I saw an ad when I was browsing Craiglist today from people who were really happy with an adoption they did over CL and how happy their 6 children were.
How can you afford 6 children?
Hell, at this point I despair of ever being able to afford the one child I'd like to have. Or to ever be able to own a house or buy a new car. I'd like to do all three of those things some day. Having a kid will have to happen sooner rather than later as I am not getting any younger and after a certain point having children is more dangerous and prone to problems.
How do you figure out when is the right time? You can't know if you're going to lose your job or anything like that. I guess you just have to go on faith.
