<Yes! That is exactly what I (and Paul S.) are saying. It works that way because the decrease in household size is not so much due to fewer kids per set of parents (as you seem to be interpreting it) but to fewer two-parent households. The number of wage-earners per household has thus on average decreased.> Fewer kids per family is a given....thats standard knowlege...the number of wage earners per family problem is a social problem...no doubt about it...so......does that make the statistics less dramatic or important or????? I certainly agree that over time things have changed, you cant compare apples to oranges...maybe we should look at income per child? DAK
