The financial costs to raise children or the loss of wages to devote time to them are called opportunity costs. Children consume a considerable amount of time and energy. Exhaustion, anxiety, and stress are common complaints of parents. The rewards of raising children are intrinsic. Children bring great joy and pride to parents. Children continue the family legacy and can provide comfort to their parents in their old age.
