What do you consider to be the perfect family? how many children and what would their names/age gaps be?

    The perfect family has far more elements at play than the number of kids a couple chooses to have and names/age gaps.

    A husband and wife, and five children - four girls and one boy in the middle. The kids would be named Sondra, Denise, Theodore, Vanessa, and Rudy.

    Don't forget that the husband is a doctor and the wife is a lawyer!

    i see what you did there lol!

    for me, my husband my daughter (ella) a boy (Rusher) and another boy or girl name's im not sure about. They would be names that were special for our own personal reasons. also 2 dogs and 2 cats to add to the bunch. ooo and the kids i would like to be within 2-3 years of each other.

    Heh, all I can say is that this reminded me of the following song by the Ramones:

    We're a happy family
    We're a happy family
    We're a happy family
    Me mom and daddy

    Sitting here in Queens
    Eating refried beans
    We're in all the magazines
    Gulpin' down thorazines

    We ain't got no friends
    Our troubles never end
    No Christmas cards to send
    Daddy likes men

    Daddy's telling lies
    Baby's eating flies
    Mommy's on pills
    Baby's got the chills

    I'm friends with the President
    I'm friends with the Pope
    We're all making fortunes
    Selling Daddy's dope

    Sitting here in Queens
    Eating refried beans
    We're in all the magazines
    Gulpin' down thorazines

    We ain't got no friends
    Our troubles never end
    No Christmas cards to send
    Daddy likes men

    We're a happy family
    We're a happy family
    We're a happy family
    Me mom and daddy

    Any family that works together and love one another is perfect but...

    I would like my family to be me ay husband, two Stepsons almost 19 and 16 and a new baby on the way. Then hopfully a second baby on the way when the first is about 9 -12 months old. Children Scott, Eddie, Virginia and Malcom or Victoria. But at this point (been trying to have a baby for awhile) Just one baby of either sex would be wonderful.

    Are you asking about opinions concerning family size?
    We've always discussed two or three children. Two if I managed a boy and a girl. As it is, I now have two beautiful daughters, and looks like after much discussion and contemplation, we're gearing up to start trying for number three in within a year. We had wanted about 30 months apart for each, but got 21 months for the first two, which was challenging at first but is getting easier. Looks like about 4 years from the second to the third, so a bit of a late baby, but will be fine I'm sure. I just couldn't handle the idea of another any earlier than this :)

    ^^This 100%

    Nothing else really matters. Don't care how many I have or what their names end up being.

    I can't imagine how a name would prevent a family from being perfect, or make it any closer to perfection.

    Any family that loves and respects one another is perfect IMO. The number, names, age or gender of the family members is irrelevant.

    Hmmm.. well I would say that MY idea of what I'd expect in a perfect family would be a little something like this:

    Me + a husband (if I can ever wrangle one, lol)

    5 kids... meh.. maybe 6 depending how money's looking for the both of us.

    IF 5 kids, I'd want 3 boys and 2 girls.. in that order. If 6, then I'd like it to be 3 boys, 1 girl, another boy, and lastly---a girl!... Yeah..weird how specific that is. I haven't quite figured out the age thing myself just yet though.

    OH! There's gotta be a pet or two in there somewhere also. Maybe a dog.. or a hedgehog! They are too cute! > w<

    The perfect family would be those who spend quality time together, who respect each other and love each other before anyone else.

    No age, no gender, no amount of children could ever really determine what the perfect family would be.
