I think children deserve to go to a home where they are wanted. I love my brood of 4 and may have more, but wouldn't begrudge or be ugly to anyone who feels differently. I may not understand this thinking, but we're all different and come from different places.

Anyway, you may or may not save money by not having children. We manage to save more now than ever, and make just a hair more per year than we did b.c. (Before children). Ours was a matter of getting our ducks in a row and getting educated about how to handle money (ongoing).
