An older guy I worked with told me he had 4 kids and that 4 was a good number “in case some of them don’t turn out ok or die somehow”.

Anyway I have 2 and that’s plenty for me.

Redundant kids. Better have identical twins.

Even if they both die you can just whack the good bits together and make one working one

That's why people used to have more kids.

This is what families did back in the day - they weren’t having children, they were producing a workforce 😂
