Society, if someone can’t even afford a home, not a house or even an apartment, how could we possibly afford a child, think

You said it perfectly. I would just add the INSANE inequality between becoming a mother/& becoming a father.

Or disabilities I have Schizophrenia and my medication makes it impossible to carry a baby. I'd have to go completely off my meds to have a child.

I'd like to have children but I can't afford to. I don't have family who could provide childcare and don't earn enough to save enough to not work

I think it's different for everyone. I'm 54 & new at 15 I did not want kids. I love my life & wouldn't change it.

So true - it’s simply not a viable, affordable option for many now.

also even if both of the parents return to work for every child that is born the birthing parent will on average earn 5-10k less

All of this has really be in my brain lately. How could I want to have a child when I can barely afford to support myself.

if I'm having a kid, I want them to succeed. I've struggled my whole life. I don't want my kid(s) to do the same. my mum might be happy with it not me

I agree - and I must say before I became a mum I wanted to make sure I wanted to have children, not that I felt pressured to have children by society.

Not to mention that Infertility assistance or adoption is also very experience in the US. For us it came down to: buying a house, IVF OR Adoption.

It's not always childless by choice, for a lot of us, it's childless by necessity. It's a dream I had to give up because we can't afford the cost.
