More children, less control of family finances.
 
As a married person, the level of expenses increases each year depending on the number of children and the specificity of each one especially if you have a child who needs special medical care then expenses are exponential or even studies purposes for that case. Some parents spend a lot of money on their children's studies outside territories.
