In Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids , contrarian economist Bryan
Caplan argues that we've needlessly turned parenting into an
unpleasant chore, and don't know the real plusses and minuses of
having kids. Parents today spend more time investing in their kids
than ever, but twin and adoption research shows that upbringing is
much less important than we imagine, especially in the long-run.
Kids aren't like clay that parents mould for life they're more like
flexible plastic that pops back to its original shape once you
relax your grip. These revelations are wonderful news for anyone
with kids. Being a great parent is less work and more fun than you
think,so instead of struggling to change your children, you can
safely relax and enjoy your journey together. Raise your children
in the way that feels right for you they'll still probably turn out
just fine. Indeed, as Caplan strikingly argues, modern parents
should have more kids. Parents who endure needless toil and
sacrifice are overcharging themselves for every child. Once you
escape the drudgery and worry that other parents take for granted,
bringing another child into the world becomes a much better deal.
