On: The data are clear: The boys are not all right

The toolbox for doing it sucks too. The public school and childcare infrastructure is absolute shit and private is an expensive crapshoot

That sounds like the toolbox when your kid is born. You are probably right as it pertains to the US. I’m talking about pre-birth part.

That really depends on the country, the smart move may require relocating to raise kids elsewhere.

Some jobs are unfortunately linked to areas where it’s really expensive to raise kids.

I've just looked at this recently, boarding school in Spain is around 12k per year

In the USA 12k buys you a half day of care or possibly a religious school if you are already a member

That's why I mentioned boarding schools, you don't have to live there to send your kids to it and also it might be good for them, nurture independence and a lot of experience with a foreign culture while also giving you flexibility and easing the burden of child raising.
