On the other hand, I see crowds of kids around the section 8 areas of the city. Poor parents (often single mothers) with kids that are unlikely to do any better than their parents when it comes to education and earning potential, let alone making positive contributions to society in general. These are the folks that should be thinking long and hard about having kids, since they are not in the situation to properly care for them. Somewhere along the way, we’ve removed the incentive for smart, educated people to have children, and moved that incentive to the people that shouldn’t be having children at all. (not because of anything genetic, but simply because they lack the financial resources to properly care for kids. If you can’t afford to feed, cloth, and shelter a baby, in my opinion you have no business having one.) 193 Ted D says: July 11, 2013 at 12:20 pm “As always, I’m glad that having kids worked out for you and your wife.” Listen. I’ve said before that at this point I am very much looking forward to our youngest graduating from high school in 6 short years. I’ve done my duty for my family and lineage and had kids. Now I’m ready to enjoy my life for my OWN purposes and goals. My wife is on the same page. So, once we’ve completed our obligations as parents, the sky is the limit as to what we’ll do with ourselves. Hell, I may seriously consider a major career change at that point since I will no longer have multiple people relying on my income. We may travel! Perhaps even move to another part of the country or even abroad somewhere! (my wife can claim Irish citizenship. Her biological father was born in Ireland and was adopted to a U.S. couple when he was a young child. She is considering doing it so we have a viable option if the States fully go to hell. Never hurts to have a backup plan…) https://usa-girls.startupdate.nl/ https://usa-girls.linkschakel.nl/ https://usa-girls.linknavigator.nl/ https://usa-girls.startfreak.nl/ https://usa-girls.skhor.de/ https://usa-girls.surfplezier.nl/ https://usa-girls.startway.nl/ https://usa-girls.linkactueel.nl/
