Just my two pence worth; why oh why are so many young couples rushing into having children so soon after marriage? Can no one get to know each other anymore? Especially given the expat lifestyle, no immediate family for support and the flying job with all the excruciating hours you guys work. I'm not trying to attack people's life choices, however, I do feel that people need to think realistically about raising a family here and the expenses and stresses that will come with that.
