Unfortunately, there don't seem to be limits. Years ago I worked in a family support office, and a "client" came in to add to her monthly allotment of "you owe me". She was pregnant with her sixth child. As I scanned the folder containing her "information", I noted the five kids she already had were 1/2 siblings to each other.
The interviewer was asking the standard questions. She came to the "Who's the father?" and I'll never forget that woman's reply. And I quote, 35 years later, "I don't know what his name is. We didn't exchange names. That's not what we were interested in."
Then there is the Mormon family out in Utah who have 20 (19?) kids and another on the way. Apparently he is able to support the family without public assistance.
I have 3, and can't imagine NOT having the third one. He was, and is, the "frosting on my cake".

No woman should have more than two children. The world population is rising faster than its ability to feed the people. Unless an epidemic such as H5N1 arrives, as it almost certainly will, future generations are doomed.

90% of the global population resides on 1% of the land. There are more acres of land in Alaska than the global population. Go flying around your area and see for yourself how much open countryside there is and where homes are….usually near roads. We have about 30 acres per person in the United States. That’s a pretty big chunk of land. I reside near a road that goes through a vast wilderness. If you feel pressed by over-crowding go to places like this and bring your kids and a way to earn money also.

I figured once we were blessed with one of each gender, no need to continue, and we stopped. I could have afforded more, however, we wanted to provide education, etc. as responsible parents. If I didn't care, maybe I would have had more, however, coming from one of 6 siblings, I wanted more for my kids.
