Do you really believe that?  The rewards of having a child do
not vanish when the parents must work or want to work. Furthermore, 
although a child may form strong attachments to her/his caretakers,
she/he is home with mom and dad for 120+ hours a week. 

I think that children are one of the good things in life, part of the 
life I want to lead.  I work to support that life.  Let's not 
put the cart before the horse.
