In this episode we take time to answer one of your listener questions!
We mention a study on parenting and happiness and there are several publications that compare families with and without kids with (not surprisingly) mixed results. While we won't point to one specific study, factors like income, geography, availability of parental leave, all play a role in parental satisfaction and happiness.
