Cost of Living and Children

Read this blog.

My view
I have made many comments in the past that the biggest obstacle to raising children is the high cost of living. Parents do not wish to be burdened with this additional responsibility. In my view, the cost of raising children have to be largely borne by society and not be the parent.

Each family should be allowed to have two children, with the cost paid by society. We have to get away from the past practice of giving tax incentive, as it only benefits the high income earners, and they are not so keen to have children.
