I'm sure your life is great for you. It would still be rude for me
(or anyone else) to say in response to some details about your life that
if we had to deal with that we'd be considering suicide. However, it is
apparently safe to do so about a family's choice of number or spacing of
children. It doesn't matter how tongue in cheek your comment was, it
was still rude. Just like it would be rude of someone to ask a couple
when they were going to have kids, why they don't have kids, etc, even
laughingly.

Regards,
Ranee
