I think it has raised in most of the countries.

In India, raising a child now is a very tough one. 1) Health Insurance - Not everyone has it and many who have turns out to be not sufficient. 2) Education - Schooling has become extremely expensive. There is not much regulation and schools apply a lot of tricks to get money from you, mainly under the guise of extra-curricular activities or development. They force the parents to pay, and legal recourse isn't available. 3) Health again - With the bad air, water and food that the children are getting these days, a lot of them get some or the other illness on a regular basis, which forces the kids to visit doctors frequently and take medicines. These all doctor visits don't get covered under insurance a lot of times. Kids of today are not developing a strong immune system. To top it all, many parents don't let their kids play outside. They give them a mobile and think they have done their duty.

I forsee a very bad/difficult future for a lot of children.
