ftr, one of my neices has two boys. She was hoping for a girl the 2nd time, but she said was going to stop after 2 no matter what it was. Now they want to try again. I asked her why they don't adopt. She said because her husband only wants to have his own children. (They are very religious.) I asked her, what if she has another boy? Would she try again? She said NO WAY. I pointed out that she said that before. She said this time she means it. So believe me, I am doing everything in my power to talk her out of it.

Maybe I am too judgemental about this issue (or, in general), but I really believe this is one of the most important issues facing us in the future. People are living longer, and having more kids. I honestly believe we are endangering the human race with population.
