[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous[b]]I hope you support paid family leave and universal affordable childcare, and candidates that push for those policies.[/b] [/quote] I do, but in the past, everyone started having kids in their early 20's and none of these things existed. [/quote] Because most jobs, including those that didn’t require a college degree, paid a livable wage and included good benefits so one spouse could support a family. For what it’s worth OP, my parents had me in their 20s and I lost all 4 grandparents by the time I was 23. There are no guarantees in life.[/quote] The college degree is a great point too. You could start a good career at 18 in the 60s; now you're 22 at a minimum. [/quote]
