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 :shock: 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. :up:

ES,

There is something between big and small :up: and btw for men it is easy to say "I need many kids" because they are not the ones carrying or labouring.... :lol: :lol:

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 :shock: :shock: :shock: ..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 :P

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 :mrgreen:

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