Quoting: ManticoreIn the past, rich people used to have more children, but who wants to deal with seven screaming children when you're trying to relax on your 90-foot yacht? You wouldn't have to. The servants could do it for you. |

Rev. Star Gazer User ID: 51415 United States 08/13/2006 06:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Rich people don't want to spread the wealth between too many relations - how do you think they got wealthy? From being generous?! With poor people, the more kids you have, the better the chances that at least one of them will be able and willing to care for you when you're old. But, realistically - the reasons are different for each person and aech situation.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 104103What? Are you serious? Have you seen any of them regret it? It's not about sex. They're deliberately having children. life isn't always about money to everyone. for some it's about love. kids equal love. |
