Two, and they are perfect....
 
"Chrétien was born on January 11, 1934, in Shawinigan, Quebec, as the 18th of 19children (10 of whom did not survive infancy), of Marie (née Boisvert) .."

When I lived in Montreal it was not unusual to see huge French Catholic and Irish Catholic families. I doubt that will ever happen again. 2 kids is probably the norm, 4 is almost unheard of.
 
3 for me... 2 of the most precious of girls. They are 19 and 20 now, and I love them to pieces! I also have a son, whom I love dearly as well, but differently of course. He's 22 now, and we hang out etc. Put all 3 of them through college, and it dam near broke me, (2 are still in college), but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I was recently talking with some business colleagues, over dinner, about our respective off spring, I described my son: "he's a good kid, and a hard worker, but he needs to refocus his energy." When prompted, I added: "Well if they gave out PHD's for smoking weed and playing video games, he'd be set for life!"
 
I use to play hockey with a bunch of guys. One night in the dressing room one of the guys asked our goalie how many kids he had. The reply was 5 kids. 4 girls and 1 boy. The boy was adopted.
