[quote=Anonymous]A lot of the smartest and most conscientious adults we know are choosing to stop at one kid. They make good money (HHI of $300K+ in DC or $150K+ in LCOL areas), but they just do not want the stress of two kids. I get it. We make a lot more, but two kids just suck up so much of our time. We are now in the stage where the older kid and younger kid fight over the stupidest reasons. Spouse took our older kid on a trip last week and everything was so serene and easy. I totally forgot how much easier it is to just have one kid, even when solo parenting for a week. I think a big part of the issue with having kids is that Millennials and Gen Z are really into fitness. If you have 2+ kids, you're not doing two hour work outs everyday and counting your macros (unless its part of your job as a Navy SEAL or fitness instructor). A lot of my friends who are really into fitness have zero kids or will only consider one kid. [/quote]
