Re: How may kids you want to have?
We haven't been criticized for our choice, which we haven't even made public because it's not anyone's business. We don't interact with people who would criticize anyway, and certainly we have not had any interaction with desi aunties for, what four years now I think. His parents haven't said anything and though my parents think I should not be so rigid, they have never come out and criticized me or told to me to have children. I have usually done what I wanted throughout my life and have been very independent, my parents are very important to me but they do not interfere with my life. And even if we were criticized, I doubt it would affect us. Both of us have not been around family for very long even prior to marriage. We are also pretty asocial and have no desi friends. If somebody does criticize, why would their opinion be important? We are used to doing things on our own without asking people and people in our lives do not really question us. It is good that way, what we do we only justify to ourselves.
