[quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised people are surprised. Raising kids is treated akin to an extracurricular activity these days rather than a societal good. How many times on the board do you see phrases such as "don't have kids you can't afford," "your kids, your problem," "it's your responsibility to take care of you own kids." And then all these examples in this thread about the "sacrifices" people made to have kids. Is it any wonder that many decide it's just not for them? I also think if you actually start talking to people who use affordability as the reason, it's rarely just that. Lots of young folks have concerns about what kind of world their kids would grow up in. It all adds up.[/quote]
