" Can you imagine the side effect of paying parents more than we already do to stay home? " yes I can. I addressed that in my post. The people I would like to see have children are highly educated women, since maternal educational achievement is a strong predictor of a child''s success- and they need some incentive to have children, since our society is so materialistic, they give up a lot of "success" in order to have children.

College-educated women were especially encouraged by exhortations and incentives to marry and have children. " countrystudies.us
