[quote=Anonymous]Also, kids are literally less expensive for a lot of this demographic because they were never going to be able to afford braces and soccer camp and college funds, so it’s not like it is a consideration. You have the baby, you and your extended family take turns managing childcare and you go back to work pretty much immediately (e.g., working 8 hour shifts as a waitress 2 weeks after giving birth). You just have to do that until they go to school. They spend a lot of time shuffling between grandma’s house and auntie and whoever else lives nearby.[/quote]
