in the deepest private secrets of their soul, wishing they had not had children, hating the soccer practice, the upcoming tuition pressures,

The solution here is to dump soccer practice and paying for college. It kills me that people say that they can't have any more children because they couldn't afford college for two or three or whatever. Who the hell cares about college in comparison to bringing another life into the world?

Responsible people who care about their childrens' future. We have way too many people in this world who get knocked up without thinking about what kind of life they can provide their child.

We're human beings, not rabbits.

Sadly, in my town, there are an awful lot of people who are so consumed by living the parenthood script that I doubt they even remember their childrens' names. Just as a few people who are parents castigate the childless, there are also parents who feel "it is all about THEM".

Why do parents think they need to pay for college in the first place?
