I'm looking for experiences of active Mormon families who only have one child. Specifically, families who came to the guided decision that one child was simply what was best for their family. If the decision to have one child was made for you (health, infertility, etc...) I would still love to hear what it has been like being a 3-person family. Because of my family situation, I've begun to think that our one child may be our only child, but I've really wanted to hear what other's experiences have been like within the Mormon community to help guide my decision. When I've tried to look up information online, I've only been led to anti-Mormon forums and blogs. So hopefully I can get some help here. Some questions I'd love to have answered... What helped you know that one child was what was right for your family? What have you done to raise your child in a way so they don't miss out on some of the perks of having a larger family? What has been great about it? What has been hard? Once you made the decision, what helped you to not second-guess yourself? Have you still felt accepted by the Mormon community?
Thank you!
