Deciding how many kids you're going to have can be a very loaded question for couples. If you don't agree, it can be very hard to compromise on something as central as the structure of your family.

Obviously, in a healthy marriage, the father should be just as involved in the kids' lives as the mother. But intentions aside, when the woman is carrying the children in her body and providing the lion's share of child care, it's going to feel very emotionally different for each parent.

In a recent post on the subreddit Am I The *sshole a woman asked if she's wrong for telling her husband that tying her tubes is her decision, not a choice for them to make as a couple.

"AITA for telling my husband that whether or not I get my tubes tied is my decision, not our decision?"

OP started the post by sharing that she is a stay at home mom currently pregnant with their fourth child.

"My husband and I have 3 kids and our 4th is due next week. Our daughter is 5 and our two boys are 3 and 2. Our younger son just turned 2 last month. There are 23 months separating our daughter and first son and 16 months separating our first and second son. I say all of this to let you know that the kids are all close in age. Not only has it been hard on me physically but it's hard emotionally. I left my job to be a stay at home mom. I'm okay with that and my husband doesn't believe in daycare but it's draining to have no adult interaction all day."
