Those aren't kids. Those are kid-shaped pensions.

You're kinda proving my point.

People think kids are too expensive because of the expectation of what kids cost. Not just monetarily but also in terms of time.

You see it especially in Asian countries like South Korea. Kids mean hiring tutors, violin lessons, test prep, etc. Because of course my kid won't be average, he's going to be a next Bill Gates and that costs a lot of money.
