The actions and things that we do always shape our financial lives. For some people, they have made some decisions that have hammered their financial lives. One of such actions is a person that has kids before having a financial stability.

Such action would keep the person in financial mess for a long time.

You are right. Some people choose to have children even when they are facing financial hardships. I know someone who decided to have children even though she did not have a job. She depends solely on her mother, who is also facing financial struggles.

That's true. They would love to buy the latest clothes instead of investing and saving money. There is no way such people would grow financially.

In my country (and the neighbor Argentina, sharing a similar culture), one of the typical habits plummeting one's finance is the 15 years old birthday party of a female teenager. There is a tradition pushing people to organize a party that looks like a luxury wedding party, including a bride dress. A party like that for the sake of a niece of mine, cost to my in-laws in one day the double of my entire second university degree. And whatever birthday party, especially children's birthday parties, has the habit to cost thousands. So you imagine...
