TIME! we don't have any time! Who cares if daycare is free, the average family is still working over 80 hours to survive, who wants to deal with that mental load and have a family on top of it especially when that 80 hours barely pays the bills.
It's no wonder people were having kids when you could support a large family on 40 hours.
