| Jun 15, 2011 at 16:58 | comment | added | Darwy | @Kilo No worries; My first wasn't a planned pregnancy, but I have no regrets with her. I remarried at 35 and the year my daughter graduated high school was the year her little brother was born. She thinks it's the coolest thing ever, and I have a built-in baby sitter when she's in town. (She's off living at college now). I'm rather atypical when it comes to the age spacing, but we've considered trying for 1 more before I'm too damn old. If it happens, it happens and the age difference is what it is. | |

| Jun 14, 2011 at 21:34 | comment | added | BBM | @Kilo: I don't have siblings. My personal experience as a parent of 1 child is that an exhausted parent, which tries to sacrifice his time and his own needs to the "best" for his child also sacrifices the wellbeing of the child and the whole family. So, IMHO that is the kid's perspective: "I want/need satisfied parents which also have a life of their own." And my experience as a scientist is, that "scientifically solid" research is hard to do already in the natural sciences. So I doubt that you can objectively measure 'success in life'. Thanks for reminding me the FAQ. | |

| Jun 14, 2011 at 6:03 | comment | added | Kilo | @Darwwy - Thank you for addressing the question that was asked! @EveryoneElse - I'm not asking for random, unsubstantiated opinions (you can post those on yahoo "answers"); nor suggestions to change the point of the question (clarification requests are ok). Do you have any actual experience or data that relates to the actual question that was asked? If so, please be specific about what age differences you have experience with. (If you have something you're just itching to preach or start an argument about, please do that elsewhere.) | |
| Jun 14, 2011 at 5:30 | comment | added | tomjedrz | You are overthinking the matter. Good parenting will produce good children regardless of the spacing, and vice versa. You want another child ... have another child. The last thing you want to do is make it about the other child(ren). | |
| Jun 13, 2011 at 19:06 | comment | added | Kilo | @BBM - I don't know if there's any solid research (so I'm asking), and you're right that success can be defined many ways... I'm receptive to any and all: academic level, income, happiness, philanthropy... I want to learn anything that's known. | |
