    I personally think the number of children should not count here, for parents all kids are the same. yes I do agree with Haris, there are some sadists who have disagreed to comments here. The loss of child can be felt only by the parent who has endured it.

    Even parents may have 7 or 8 children, but loosing one is still painful. Let Allah give them strength to bear the pain.
