As the number of births declines year-on-year, a large percentage of childless Americans are not planning to have any children.

    Yes, in edge cases. None of it, even the extreme edge case, adds up to the 80k in daycare until college. For the large majority birth is a trivial concern vs the loss of income or daycare.

    This is basic math.
