[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well immigration *was* the answer [/quote] Grrr this answer always upsets me. And not because I am anti immigrants. Why are we relying on immigrants instead of letting our population have children? Dh and I are now UMC, but we waited until our mid 30s to have kids because we couldn’t afford it from 25-35. We didn’t have maternity leave and also couldn’t afford to be a sahm. I have so many other friends who would like to have had a second or third child and couldn’t afford it. [/quote] I hope when we get rid of gerontocrats on all sides that we can have more government attention on the needs of children and better working conditions in K-12 education. There is still the possibility of social change in this area. Despite how terrible Covid was for the education system, I see signs of recovery.[/quote]
