i always wanted a small family like 2-3 kids..but i dont think i want a small family anymore...i have a friend..who is from a small family and way igusoowaalatay..maalinkasta..kaalay baxneey..or aan kuuimaado bay ihaysaa..because shes bored ..seriously..even the house work ayeey ka cabanaaysaa...because theres not a lot of helping hands...gurigooda..waa toooooooooo quiet and when shes not there in the house..hoyaadeed iyo aabeeheed ma jecla...hadiikale way cidloonayaan. I have another friend a Sudani..who also comes from a small family..theres only two of them

and she told me she wanted many children
wallahi it got me thinking..shit..i dont want my kids to feel like they're denied of having more brothers and sisters...alxamdullilah makes u appreciate each and every member of your own family.

i come from a small family and i love it. i mean it does get real boring at times, but nothin i can't deal with. i do, however, want a big family for the same reasons or at least have my kids close together.

ES,
There is something between big and small

and btw for men it is easy to say "I need many kids" because they are not the ones carrying or labouring....

Suga how big lool..all my friends in school even the Muslim ones..came from small families..2/3 and rarely 4
Gaalada hadalkooda daa..they were all like 2 kids in total..i always dreaded when they asked me how many brothers n sisters ive got..and when i told them...they would all be like

..id quickly try to change the subject and move on to somehting else...wallahi i always hated it when they asked me that q.....now im older..it doesnt trouble me anymore looooool and i love my siblings to death wallahi..more than the ones who are closer in age to me
the thing is i dont want to be seen as that stereotypical Muslim woman with a tribe of kids.

Unless you are trying to use them as child labor in your farm or something, 2 should be more than enough

5 or 6 kids is plenty to have some fun and also keep everything under control. Below that and it's going to be boring. Above that and the house will burn down

I come from a small family. Yes, it gets boring at times, but coming from a small family also has its benefits.
