Rather knowing that your preferred number of wives is 1 and no more than 4. Then whatever amount of children you have in them to seek support from Allah (SWT) to give them good tarbiyah.
Please remember older children teach younger ones and this is how I saw the family operating. They would elect from amonst themselves (the siblings) a leader whenever they used to go out. They used to travel in groups of no more than six but no less than two or three.
Good parenting involves the establishment of leadership delegation from amongst the more responsible offsrping to those who are younger.
