[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, not only is it irresponsible to rack up $370K in school loans... it is also irresponsible to have two children when you hadn't thought through the financial consequences.

I'm another law school grad not too much older than you (born 1982)-- I have several friends who are putting off having children due to debt issues.  
......
One of my co-worker went to law school later, and is now 34 going on 35, and says she can't even think of having kids due to high private loans for herself and her husband.  We are federal government attorneys.

Not to beat you up too much, and children are certainly more important than anything else in this world but--- yes, I do think it is irresponsible to have two kids (not just one, even), without being able to bear the expenses.  [/quote]
sorry to cut your message like this.
But there is so much more to life than money. I cannot believe you are even going this far
Your co-worker that cannot afford kids. They have other reasons for not having kids. Money is just one of the reasons they give nosey people
Either way, I think the original post is fake[/quote]

the original post is not fake.  there are thousands of young law grads like her.  But money is NOT a reason to not have kids.[/quote]

Of course money is a reason not to have kids.  Her poor kids have completely freaked out parents who might get the lights turned off.[/quote]
