1. I don't have kids
2. I don't know if I want kids
3. I definitely won't be saving up for them to go to uni unless they scrap HECS altogether.
That was easy. But I think if parents are going to have kids they should save up for them. One of the issues that annoys me is the issue of paid maternity leave. And it's not as a simple as because I don't want to have kids I don't see why I should have to pay for another mother to stay at home and watch her kids. I think if you're going to have children you should be financially prepared for them. I agree with doing more for mothers such as giving them access to childcare and job security so that they can go back to work. But increasing paid maternity/paternity leave is an unnecessary burden on society.
