Between housing prices and student loans, an entire generation is being priced out of home ownership. Or they have to choose between owning a house or having kids. For a lot of people, there's simply not enough money to do both.

Shit, that's for ones who haven't had kids yet. I feel sorry for the people who had several and were just making it before... They are totally screwed now. Shit even when we were young and had a child every $100 in the bank meant something, there's no way we could handle this inflation.
