[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone is not an upper income family. Everyone will need hospital services at some time Every pregnancy will end in a birth, parental leave is a necessity to recover from birth. Infant is not a lifestyle choice. They have to have a lot of care. Children are born into all kinds of circumstances. We are in this world together A few weeks of parental leave is not much to ask for. You will work a lifetime, society provides your kid with 12 years of public schooling anyway. [/quote] Having kids is a choice. If you can’t afford to have kids and maintain the lifestyle you want, then don’t have kids. You don’t have the right to have everyone else pay for your choices. Grow up.[/quote] The previous poster reflects the prevailing attitude in the US, at least when it comes to those who control the levers of power. And this is why nothing will ever change. Truly, we are on our own. But hey, tax credit! [/quote]
