It's something that even Pope Francis has touched on or had touched on in his lifetime.

The idea that a life without children or choosing not to have children was like choosing a selfish path.

I've been married for almost four years and I have a wonderful husband.

People like him more than they like me, which is the correct thing to do.

Um, so lots of people actually constantly are talking to me about having a child and asking me why I don't have one already.

So I do get a lot of the shoulds or why don't choose or what are you doing and blah, blah, blah.

Um, however, uh, yeah, I haven't had a child.

And so I haven't had the experience of, um, of people.

I, I, yeah, I haven't had the experience of how people might read you when you do, you know, become a parent.

Well, one thing I will say, I have seen as the norms are trending towards smaller families.

I have also seen sort of like...

joke or trend that like, you know, that having, uh, more than two children basically is like a sign of extreme wealth.

Like what's the sort of like wealth whispers kind of a economic indicator.

It's like, Oh, if you've got like five kids and you're in New York city, I mean, I'm not gonna lie when I flew home to Michigan at the holidays and I was in the Newark airport seeing a very New York family, uh, going through security and they had five kids and each of everybody in the family had a Cotopaxi backpack on.

I was like, Oh,

And they had the nanny traveling with them.

I was like, you guys are rich.

Or you're shorting one of them.

I've seen people sort of, you know, say, oh, we'll pass a certain point and all the kids are just raising each other.

And you can't possibly give all of these kids, you know, attention or it's not healthy for them.
