I grew up in a huge family, and know very well the costs of parenting in terms of time, energy, and money.

And I'm childless and unmarried because I love my peace, quiet, and having (most) of my money. My parents, thanks to that choice, are forced to live off working for DoorDash and begging their kids for help.
