couples can have more financial freedom. A research paper published in the Wall Street Journal reported that American couples without kids had 60% more savings than those who had at least one or more kids to raise.

However

, there are

also

a few drawbacks to

this

trend.The most significant problem is that when the couple grow old, they lack the emotional and financial support. It is very common that the kids support their old parents financially and spend time taking care of them.

Such

assistance is not available to the people who decide to live their lives without children.It impacts the satisfaction and happiness of these people.

For instance

, a survey carried out by Harward University claim that the Americans living without children are 65% more likely to face depression and anxiety In conclusion,

although

the lack of kids can provide an opportunity to have more financial savings, there are negative consequences.Couples without children tend to have less satisfied life after the retirement age because there is nobody to take care of them.
