[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A decision to have 0, 1,2, 3, 4 or more kids is a major economical decision and changes your lifestyle drastically. With 3+ kids it’s harder for a woman to work because of cost of childcare. Kids are expensive. Travel with 3+ kids becomes unaffordable for many people. Saving for college become unaffordable, buying cars for them. Even groceries for a family of five are so much more. [/quote] I’m a working woman with 3 kids. I would love to quit because I work an executive job (senior director at a tech company), but I don’t think it would be good for me in the long run. Having two kids was easy and three kids is harder not because I had three kids but because the third is much younger. As a unit of economics, childcare actually is cheaper with three kids if you have a nanny. It becomes expensive when you do preschool etc. But my spouse works and we manage. It’s doable. And we have a decent quality of life.[/quote]
