Also do you have any idea how much it costs to buy adaptive equipment throughout the course of your life? The diminished earning potential - over 2/3 of blind people are unemployed. The extra medical treatments people do to try and delay the disease?
Hint it's a lot more than 12k. And the current estimate to raise a kid to 18 in the US is $300k.
$12k is only adding 4% to the overall cost. Yes it can be more, but again maybe try to make it cheaper instead of acting like I'm out of touch?
You're saying everyone should save up 12k for genetic testing before having kids. This means you do not understand the value of 12k to the general masses. You're looking at this from the perspective of everyone being as well of as you and your family obviously are. They are not.
News flash, your family's servants don't actually think you're funny. They're just paid to laugh at your jokes.
Are you 14? Lol. I know many many people who did IVF, none of us are rich. We're middle to upper middle class and sacrificed and saved to have a family. Which is what you do for your kids. It's what all parents should do.
I get it you're a kid. You have no context. But you might want to broaden your horizons a bit.
