Well having kids is a much larger burden on life and financially than it used to be on top of the fact more women want to focus on their career and having children puts them at a disadvantage, especially with the high cost of childcare. You have to sacrifice a lot of have kids.
How many people do you know want to spend $900/month or even more on daycare?
My youngest daughter spends almost double that for her 2 little ones in a average professional chain type daycare in our area.
That's more than her mortgage payment for her 1990s 2200 square foot 3 bedroom, 2 and half bath home.
