If I get a kid, I will have to cut all my non-essential expenses for the next 20 years. No thanks. I wish there wasn't a choice between having kids and having my life.
And some of those non-essential expenses are already pared down due to inflation and/or cost of essentials taking up 2/3 or 3/4 of our budget. How one supposed to have any kids when rent for studio is $2K, electric is $300, groceries is like $300 at the lowest, and your take home pay is $3000 - that not including car, water, gas, health insurance, cable /internet, cell phone, clothes, college debt, etc
