[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s even a middle/upper middle status symbol. I have 2 cousins with regular jobs in the Midwest, both married to men with regular jobs, 4 kids each. I’m a Millennial and the only people I knew growing up with 4+ kids were religious, or some of them were half or step siblings. But now, 4+ kids means you met your spouse and started having kids young enough that it was an option, and that [b]you’re doing well enough on income that you can make it work financially.[/b] I feel like I’m seeing more of both the larger families and one and done by choice these days and comparatively fewer in the middle with 2 or 3 kids. [/quote] In the case of 4+ I know of, it is because the woman's family has money and that's how they were able to afford their lifestyle and purchase a six bedroom home. There is no way they could have done it without family money.[/quote]
