[quote=Anonymous] I don't think that people who have children and happen to have more money should be the only ones "subsidizing" other people who have children, but who don't have enough money. That's supposedly why the state subsidizes the state schools---because all people in society benefit from a more educated citizenry---not just those with children. Having children in a responsible manner (saving and working and maybe even getting married to make a stronger economic union) should not be made into a disincentive. People should be encouraged to be responsible and those who are responsible should be encouraged to have children. Tennis mom's kid may have to bear the burden of her irresponsibility by taking out loans that cannot be discharged in bankruptcy court. That's sad, but that's a problem that all of society must try to resolve (and not on the backs of those who happen to have kids in college at the same time as her kid).[/quote]
