Thing is, a child might be an investment for the future of society, but, for the parents, it's just an expense. And with the cost of everything rising and wages failing to keep up, a lot of people make the realisation that they can't afford a child.

I 100% agree. If the government and corporations don't consider children important, then parents won't bring them in. Simple as.

They don't consider them important otherwise they would actually take measures to prevent school mass shootings.
