A more reasonable version, which one of those dear friends put into a non-unreadable novel, is for each couple to have only one child.

That’s fine with me, but having one has made me a lot fonder of the young of our species. Like you, I couldn’t handle two or more, but just having some distant collective claim to 1/10 of a child would depress me, and I think I’m very far from alone on that.
