Parents, children and finances.
We met a couple the other day, they have a 14 year old.
We got talking and they said that they would have liked more children, but due to lack of finances they only had one.
One of the women in the group asked " If you had a good, stable income and had the nice house, good cars, could travel, could spend all day buying shoes and such in the Corte Ingles and never had to worry about money every again- how many children would you like to have?
The couple in questin looked at each other and both answered at the same time........
NONE

Re: Parents, children and finances.
I remember going into a shop in London to buy school uniforms for my children, I had more than one. It was the only shop that supplied these uniforms and their prices were ridiculous.
My hand was shaking as I wrote out the cheque for far more than I had in the bank. I then went into the off licence next door and bought an expensive and rare bottle of whiskey, for my bank manager.
We used to holiday in a caravan on the Essex coast. Without children, we would have been in the Bahamas.
And I’m still sending off cheques now, loads of them.
