| 0:00.0 | Hey dessert listeners, I thought I would answer your questions, particularly the |
| 0:03.6 | upper tier patron questions. |
| 0:05.8 | A particular patron Louise from Colorado asks, |
| 0:09.3 | what is the ideal age gap between siblings based on research? |
| 0:13.9 | I just had my first baby two months ago and I am curious as to what the ideal age gap |
| 0:19.6 | between siblings is from a psychological point of view. |
| 0:23.2 | I know that the typical age gap in America and Europe is around three years |

| 1:13.8 | but the thing that I would say up at your patron Louise from Colorado is that |
| 1:18.6 | if you're trying to plan out your family and you're figuring out okay how long should I wait |
| 1:24.1 | until I have the next child you just had a baby and you're like you know what would be the |
| 1:29.6 | ideal age gap. There are far more important factors in development of a child |
| 1:35.6 | that would far eclipse any kind of effect that age difference in relationship. For example, |
