I agree with this. But, would rather that the uneducated, unhealthy and poor not have more children because they cannot give them a good future in today's world instead of the educated, healthy and not poor.

Even if kids are optional, it is good for people to be in a marriage or be a part of a multi-gen family so that they can be looked after in their old age.   After all this country does not have any strong security net left for most people.

Your kids are not your servants! They have no obligation to take care of you. That expectation is really unfair to them.[/quote]

They don't need to be servants or caregivers but they can watch out for your interests when you aren't able to do it yourself.  Not out of obligation but out of love if it exists. [/quote]

Totally agree. We (husband and kids) watch out to make sure our older parents aren't getting scammed and sometimes help out with logistics, house maintenance, travel, etc. My mom wants to see a grandchild, but doesn't feel comfortable traveling along anymore, so I am going to take the trip with her.
