Well, I don’t know if Amy doesn’t like kids, or if she’s simply jealous of these wealthy families. Her ostensible cover is a question about the size of rich broods: family values or fashion statement?
I do take issue with Jong-Fast’s statement:
“And these women who never worked can start popping them out in their 20′s, which means that normal women can’t possibly catch up.”
We had our kids in our mid to late 20′s, as did many of our friends. We elected to have one of us stop working the 9-5 grind and work 24/7 for the family. It was a financial struggle, a frustrating and joyous exercise, and I would do it all over again with relish.
So, define “normal.” These “normal” women chose to wait for their own reasons. Sadly for them, physiology waits for no one. I can’t help but characterize Jong-Fast’s treatise as a pathetic attempt to ignite class warfare on the battleground of fertility.
