[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The discussion about what kind of family structure is best for kids isn't as relevant as it would have been a generation or two ago, because far fewer people are going to have kids. They are concerned about the environment and also financial stability, but also seeing women suffer by trying to do it all.

I am married with kids and while my life is great, I think a lot of that is luck and I wouldn't unequivocally recommend either to an unmarried woman. [/quote]

Agree. Need eyes wide open to have kids nowadays AND ideally high income. 
At minimum raising kids will break your marriage and self of self if you have a work addict or misogynist husband. Hiring nanny or after school care or cleaning help can only replace a partner so much. You’ll be working 15 hour days between office work and family/kid obligations (meals, homework, ECs, driving, appts, social stuff).

I hope I can be there geographically if any of my daughters choose to marry and have kids. My parents have been lifesavers for flying in on crazy weeks or work travel or defunct husband times.

Who knows WTF he thinks, if he thinks at all. [/quote]
