Inflation is causing some to think twice about having kids: ‘It doesn’t make sense’

After giving birth to her first child in August of last year, 24-year-old Autumn Oliver-Giasson has decided to hold off on having more children until the high cost of living in Canada eases.

“It’s just not plausible. It doesn’t make sense,” she told Global News from McQuade, N.B.


My Mom was for the most part a stay at home housewife, though she did do “sewing” for a small clientele. Later she did work both full and part time as a seamstress doing alterations for clothing stores and dry cleaners for about 4 or 5 years.

Stay at home Mom’s were common during my childhood, my parents managed to raise 7 kids on a working class salary.

No we were not well off but no one starved despite occasional hard times.
