it makes perfect sense that people do not want to have kids these days. in the past, you could put them to work by age 8 and they were pulling their own wight and were an asset. But today, they won't pull their own weight, maybe even up to their 30s when they finally graduate with some worthless piece of paper and then will struggle to get by for another 10 years.So indeed, children are a liability these days. But it is not their fault, the society is simply broken.
@Justicar Perhaps the true liability all along were their parents' weakness and their grandparents who decided everyone's future in WW2. The kids never stood a chance.
