I really wanted kids, too. I despise everyone who voted for this who has taken that away from me. I will never get to have a family thanks to this administration. It’s horrible. [/quote]

I say this with much kindness. Please take a deep breath and consider talking through your feelings with a therapist. If you really wanted children and have limited time, don’t make the decision not to have them, or even just one, because of Trump. Children were born even during the Great Depression and  World War 2. I had my son just before I got too old, and while he has been a difficult child in some ways, he has also brought much joy. I think he makes our small corner of the world a better place.[/quote]
Ironic, too, since Vance is pushing for people to have more kids,   not just one.

But, yea, having kids on one salary and saving for college and retirement in a hcol is very difficult.  And if both are feds on the chopping block.. forget it.  Or are you advocating for people to have kids while they are unemployed, with Mump gutting social welfare?

[b]As feds, we didn't make enough to fund IVF or to pursue adoption, so we just gave up that dream of having kids, since I couldn't conceive naturally. [/b]

This is the first time I've actually been happy about not having kids, there is no way we could afford to live in the area, have one person unemployed and still feed ourselves if we had kids. [/quote]

This is such bullshit. Two GS-9 Feds can make $150K combined. That's early career salaries.[/quote]
