It's just a slight attempt to prevent it from becoming impossible to have a child unless you were middle-class or better, and make it not so bad in the human rights department...Rob

Many, if not most of us, were not/ are not middle class and choosing to have children in a responsible manner. Twenty-four years ago I worked 70-80 hours 7 days a week to pay for my son's birth and associated care. He's a college student today and like the Ever Ready bunny the bills continue. As far as the imaginary couple is concerned, maybe having children just isn't something they can afford but maybe at a later time.
