Re: To have kids or not to? Your opinion from economy perspective
How come in past, people that did not have anything, only garden with vegetables and hunting, managed to raise children?
True, the difference is knowledge.In the past, our parents only finish elementary school/junior high school and they can't see the world because cellphone was very expensive. Now, most people are at least finish senior high school, many of them even have degree and we can see the world, almost everyone have cellphone.
In the past, people needs is only food, now it's more than just food.

If money is the main issues in having baby or not having baby, I suggest to check all benefits that government give. Parents receive monthly child support money, after birth quite an amount. I havent checked, but maybe government also provide with food. In my country they give a huge pack of diapers when baby is born (heh, this is only for few months). I am 100% sure that there is government support, as they need to support their future voters 
It's true the government give benefits for child support, but it's not enough.Sometimes, having kids will motivate you to think outside the box and look for other means to increase your income because you already have a responsibility to take care of. If you feel that because of family responsibilities that you are scared of and refuse to get married, it means that you are not a man enough. One child is enough.
It means you have no ambition in the first place and you need something to force you to make more money? my friends usually said this, if you feel your life is flat, take BMW mortgage. 
I don't know if I'm not a man enough, but I'm a hardworking person.
