You don’t have to justify to anyone why you are having a child. (As a parent, I can see by you’re set up better than most)

If for no other reason having children is our biological raison d’être. Go tell a squirell it’s not rich enough to procreate!

Children are brought up with very little means everyday; they don’t need rich parents.

Children are seen by our rich society as a luxury good that only the well off are worthy of buying.

Instead what children need are strong loving parents. (I’m so anoyed at the parents of my kid’s spoiled friends, and she not even three)

I lived for three months in Cali (Santa Barbara) and it is one of the last places in N. America I would raise my daughter. Only the despair from the poorest, heroin addicted, countries in WV would rank lower.

A well employed parent, a well educated spouse and grandparents to help. We should all be so lucky!
