In Ayn Rand's writings outside of Atlas Shrugged" and The Fountainhead she makes it clear she stayed away from the subject of children, because as she said, she had no real knowledge of children or raising children.

And obviously no knowledge of the self-sacrifice it takes to have children.

Her collection of essays The Anti-Industrial Revolution include several masterful commentaries on statist "education." I quoted her in my MS thesis, along with a marxist jesuit and an ArmEnian Calvinist.
