@gavinreid5387 So what's the solution? Aim for McDonald's and Home Depot. How realistically low are we talking about? High school janitor? Junkyard Guard?

@72vaan That's the problem with american parents. They see parenting as a duty and tradition that they have to do just so they don't look bad too there parents or people in there communities. Many fall in "love" and get married just so that they can cohabitate with spouse for companionship/sex not to raise a children. If you as as many older couple why they had kids, they'll say they there was no why, kids just happened as a consequence of marital coupling (or just accidentally got pregnant and then got married as a result or worse). Nobody in america likes having kids, family, or the responsibilities that come along with it. Not the men and not the women. That's why most american families look forward to there kids turning 18 and them moving out. They never enjoyed being a parent in first place! They just did what other people said they were supposed to do just so they wouldn't look bad to others. There was no passion or long term investment in there kids because that would take too much work which they frankly hated doing in the first place. Contrast that to Asian parents who see parenting as long term investment in there own and there family's future. They don't get married to have sex or cohabitate although those thins are a part of it. They do it to have children. Then they put all there available time and resources into making sure those children succeed at all cost. They live for there children, not for themselves while trying raise children at the same time, and that's why Asian's end up doing better in the long term. Asians parents care about there kids long term wellbeing. American parents don't give ** or at least don't care as much cause that would take too much time away from themselves.
