I agree you shouldn’t have a child if you can’t afford one, but are you saying it would be OK if the median family income could not support a child?

Well that’s kind of important considering this article is about the U.S. and uses U.S. median income figures and U.S. inflation.

The median family income is $80,000. That’s definitely enough to support two children in median parts of the country.
