If your children provide you support, great! You have that advantage vs. people that don't have children or that have children that are, let's say, a drain on their time.

Your children still did not earn income, you did. And you got a tax break for that as well in the form of dependents. You are asking to double-dip here, which is unfair.

If you think that's double dipping, then you have a sad view of the world. Here's some news - when you actually earn a decent income, child tax credits do very little to offset taxable income, especially when you are a business owner.

And single people have no child tax credits at all, what's your point?
