Childcare is backbreaking work, compared to an office job.

What gets me is these women that have kid after kid even though they can't afford them. They know the more kids they have, the more money they get....those poor kids.

If you can't afford children, then don't have any.

I work in my yard and clean the house. No one pays me. I want money too. Not fair everyone gets some but me. I could use a new car too. How about just help me out and give me 10,000 toward a new vehicle. That would be great!

I never got paid for being a dad. My average work week was 48 hours, I found time to do martial arts with my girls, coach soccer, teach my son mechanics and how to weld.

I never asked for pay or expected it, because the reward was being part of my kid's lives.. As others have said already, dont have kids if you aren't up for the challenge and the responsibility. It is 2021, use protection. or get yourself fixed, but quit whimpering for a payday.

Maybe, childcare is a snap compared to working in a factory. I know because I did both. I loved every moment I had with my kids even when they were acting out.

Buyers remorse. People regret having kids. They hate their life and look for scapegoats to justify their misery and handouts to fix their own mistakes.

Ivanka Trump championed similar initiatives. I would now expect the right to bash Ivanka. But that wont happen.

I wasn't exhausted when I was raising kids, it was the best time in my life! Sure I got TIRED but it wasn't from being a mom...it was life and it happens to everyone.
