Husband wants another kid but we have tons of debt

[natasha.cornelius]

I'm pretty much convinced, at this point in my life, that only stupid people are breeding.

The rest of the people that try to plan, save money, have some foresight, and those who raise kids not for reasons of finding personal happiness, but as stewards of a future generation, are not having enough kids.

If you can't afford to take care of yourselves, let alone another kid, and if you won't be able to afford to feed/clothe/educate and stick together as parents, then, from the bottom of my heart, please don't do it.

There, I said it. I have no doubt that my vitriolic opinion will be unpopular, but it's the truth.

Agreed. Except maybe for the "only stupid people are breeding." There are a few people out there who still plan and know how to take care of someone other than themselves, but everything else- agreed!

It's not.

You simply cannot plan for every contingency in life. Attempting to do so will result in an extremely unhappy life.
