so the only thing you get is 0,5 person tax deduction per children. everything else is for lower incomes. you are right its not nothing but knowing these children will pay for the current generation retirement this is a very small upside

0.5 for the first and second child, 1 for the 3rd? Also you get "free" retirement semester per child (4 for giving birth for the mother, 4 for taking care of a child for at least 9 years, to be divided between both parents (biological or not). Free education is for everyone, as is free healthcare. Really cheap meals if whatever your income is, almost free to cheap music classes, almost free club participation (even if you have a QF of 10, 50% of the cost is still paid by the relevant state echelon, or the CAF). And let's be honest, if your QF is 8 or more in a big city with a single child, you aren't middle class: it mean your monthly revenue (pre income taxes, since those are influenced by your QF) is higher than 8k.

A lot of benefits do disappear when your QF is higher than 6 to be fair with you, but still.
