In class we have been learning a lot about he reason that some parents do or do not want a lot of children. Research has shown that upon making that kind of family decision, parents usually go back to their own home circumstances. They look at how many siblings they have and analyze whether or not that was a good number for the family. If so they are usually inclined to have that many children (give or take one or two). If it wasn't a productive number for a healthy family parental units are generally more obligated to do something completely different. Before this research was made known to me, brother Williams asked us to talk to our neighbor and let them know how many kids we wanted in the future. Mine and my partner's responses corresponded with the research given: I wanted 3 kids (because that's what I grew up with), and she wanted 5 because of what she was raised with. It was really interesting to see the same results in the rest of my classmates as well.
One Week Ago:
We discussed a lot about the individual roles of a mother and father. In doing this we read the article "Trading Your Mind For a Mop," in this we were able to recognize as a class that when you become a mother, it's not just cooking and cleaning that you do, but things more important than that. As mothers we rear children in the right direction and prepare a better generation. The role of a mother is important.
