[quote=Anonymous]Reiterating what the poster above said. I’m in my late 20s, DH and I preparing to have kids soon. We wouldn’t be able to afford kids without having to dip into savings unless we make 200k HHI minimum. As for a house we barely bought in time, 2 more years and it will probably be impossible for us to buy in a decent neighborhood with decent public schools unless we work full remote. Also, the time commitment for children is massive - we recognize all our hobbies and personal interests are going to be on hold for the next 10 years. Every single one of my friends from high school/college wants to be childless and I absolutely don’t blame them. I’m sure your kids already made their decision regardless, but I know if I want to be a grandparent someday I’m going to have to be heavily funding my kids and donating my time for babysitting to make it happen. Were you prepared to do that? [/quote]
