The Family Decision You've Been Overthinking
What if everything you believe about the "cost" of having children is wrong? Not slightly off, but fundamentally backward. While friends agonize over whether they can "afford" a second child-calculating daycare expenses and college savings-they're solving the wrong equation entirely. The real question isn't whether you can afford more children. It's whether you can afford to miss out on them. This isn't sentimentality. It's mathematics, biology, and decades of research converging on a startling conclusion: the sacrifices we associate with parenting are largely self-inflicted, the dangers we fear are statistical phantoms, and the long-term returns dwarf almost any other life investment. Yet family sizes keep shrinking, driven by fears that don't match reality and standards that science shows don't matter.
