Thats an excellent point, and my wife and I could afford to have one of us stay home with kids instead of working. However, we dont want kids. The reason? simple, we're selfish. If one of us stayed home (or even if one of us didnt) we wouldnt have as much spare money or spare time. it isnt a sacrifice either of us are willing to make, so I got fixed. =)I suppose you could make a couple with either kids or 2 careers mutually exclusive.... (oh big brother)
I want great kids or a great car and house.... there are a few that can do both but those people likely have good educations and a brain to go with it. Mom is likely active with the kids, PTA and other "kid" oriented activities. (I wonder how many of these people had stable 2 parent homes with a full time parent?)
I could go on a rant about the decline of family values but it would fall on 2 types of people, those who already know and those in denial...
I think those in denial want tougher gun laws and /or other legislation to fix the ails us...
