I’ve got 4, with a 5th on the way, and they don’t want for anything. We don’t make a ton of money, and the money we do have, we spend on experiences, food, music lessons and sport. &#xA;&#xA;If you want kids, don’t let the money you don’t have stop you. You will figure out a way to make it work. It will require tradeoffs, sacrifice, and putting your needs aside, for the betterment of your family and the future of our shared world.  &#xA;&#xA;Kids aren’t cheap, but if you don’t buy into the bullshit, buy second hand, live small, and do activities that are free after an initial purchase at a swap meet, or second hand gear sale (ski touring, fishing, surfing, hiking, camping, guitar lessons, piano, etc.) then it’s manageable.&#xA;&#xA;We need more kids, and you animals are the ones who should be having them. 🤙🫂💜&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;https://thewalrus.ca/want-to-raise-a-kid-in-canada-thatll-be-293000/#:~:text=That&#39;ll%20Be%20%24293%2C000,-.%20.%20.&amp;text=Rachel%20Cairns%20always%20knew,instance%20she%20chose%20not%20to.</html></oembed>
