    Once I went contracting the financial concerns evaporated, the houses got bigger and I had so much fun while they were growing up
    My mother tripped up at my brothers 6th birthday party - 12 days before I was born - but clearly it had no ill effect on me.

    I am sure if you ask MTT nicely he will be round to sort your wife out.

    Seriously, have you considered adoption or fostering?

      Fook that - you have to be so PC for fostering & although fostering can be quite lucrative - I'm actually enjoying now they are largely off my hands and almost independent = loads of spare cash in bank + chance to buy lots of toys
      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        However, I don't really think that "oh no, pork chops are only available pre-packed in Sainsburys in packs of four" is a rational approach to deciding whether to have a third kid or not.
        Lol, at least it is rational, unlike hormones!

          err - good point. MrsBP tried a while ago. She was basically told she was too married, stable, white and middle class. Its very upsetting that too many good parents are ignored for social engineering purposes.

              Think I would be punching any twats for suggesting that - all that matters is a loving safe home (+ a bit of firm but fair discipline)

                  You can have my oldest. He's potty trained and everything.

                    That'd win them over.

                    I wish I could have had another. Not that I enjoyed the newborn part at all , but having a sibling is lovely.
