Do you have the numbers on this, or are you just claiming it? And do you
know the costs for families besides the "1 parent 2 kid" structure? I don't
mean to sound antagonistic, I'm merely curious. You seem like you're saying
"Some people have this family structure and most people couldn't support it"
Especially because your ideal family here has one person making money and
three consuming.
