Cost is like, towards the end of the list of why I wouldn’t have kids. It’s certainly there, but number 1 would probably be something like “I would never forgive myself for bringing another life into this shitty world unsolicited”.
if you can afford a child with minimal impact to your lifestyle, you are quite wealthy.
childcare is like 2-3K a month, for that to not substantailly impact you, i would assume your take home is northwards of 10K+ a month, which means you’re making close to 200K+. which is often the income bracket at which having children is not a life-style altering choice.
for most folks, having a kid is so expensive it completely alters their lifestyle because it removes like 30-50% of their income.
implying children aren’t a financial burden implies you’re wealthy.
the original post says ‘cost’ and the other person goes ‘cost isn’t a reason for me’.
so i go ‘ok how much do you make that cost isn’t a reason for you?’ because the legit reason for the vast majority of folks, is the cost. they can’t afford kids, so they don’t have them.

if you have so much money why do you think the world is so shit? legit question.
like, just go spend it and enjoy it.
Well, if you could point out to me where I said I “have so much money”, that’d be great.
Otherwise one of us is going to look like an idiot.
