People overstate what this truly costs. Until they are much older kids eat very little, clothing them can easily be made very cheap. People simply don’t want to give up their 4 times a year vacations and new cars to have children. And that’s ok, but why act like you couldn’t cut back and afford it?

The median income is like $80k. I would commit suicide trying to raise 2 kids with that little money. Now stop and think and realize that over half the country has even less than that to work with.

National median incomes are pretty useless to this discussion. What it takes to raise a family in rural Arkansas is much different than suburban Austin Texas.

And realize that many of them are raising children. Some not as well as others.
