For the first time since 1850, when the U.S. Census Bureau started recording nativity data, immigration accounted for the entire growth of the U.S. population between 2022 and 2023, amid falling U.S. birth rates.

The other part, kids are hit with tons of extra fees these days. Nothing is included, everything cost extra, and it adds up. For example I don’t think there is a week that goes by were his school is not asking for donations or setup some dumb event that requires more money. Like pajama day cost $2 if they want to participate… Sports is not only a fee anymore but you have to pay for everything extra and uniforms as well which is funny because they are normally sponsored which i thought meant that business donated the money or uniforms so we didnt have to. Everything is nickle and dimed these days, which also doesn’t help.
So you’re saying kids these days are published with a buncha DLC and microtransactions?!
Yes!
What the fuck? Paying for the privilege to wear pajamas? That’s bullshit. I’m glad we haven’t had to deal with that yet. My little one gets to earn bringing a stuffy to school, and sometimes they just have fun days. But paying is horrible. I feel bad for the families who just can’t afford it. Then the kids get made fun of. It’s a horrible cycle.
