I buy food to feed them, I buy all of their clothes, all of their school supplies, all of their medicines, all of their entertainment. If we get pizza, I have to buy more than the DINKS (Dual Income, No Kids) because my one son can crush a pizza. The reason I get "catered" to is because I am spending most of my personal income on my kids.
I guess thats why I said If you can't afford them then don't produce. That is why my wife and I decide not to have chidren, because we couldn't afford them and I don't expect handouts from the government E.I tax cuts for dependents. I think its bull that couples that have kids get tax cuts because they can't afford the responsibility they brought upon themselves.
