[quote=Anonymous]This isn’t a new concept. NPR did a segment on this a million years ago with an economist/researcher who said that the most successful couples with enduring marriages and financial stability married young and quickly had kids. Having the mom stay home to have two kids back to back until the youngest entered pre-K saved on childcare and still allowed plenty of time for her to reenter/enter the workforce and build a career. It’s backed up be tons of research and actual data…as well as commonsense. The biggest reality is two parents are better than one. Avoiding divorce should be a priority. Plus, nowadays it takes pressure off of parents as they age when their kids are fully launched. That happens sooner when you have kids younger. [/quote]
