Which is a strong argument for not allowing people to have children until their parents have money in the bank. I believe there are plenty of people making $30K a year with 3 kids. Would you go to that family and tell them what you said to SecondCor521? Do you ask CEO's who work 80 hour weeks why they had children?

Depending on your location I think that if you showed that your plan (with the spouses knowledge) was to have kids, retire early and nurture your children with time, not money then I think a judge would recognise that and act accordingly.

Oh course my motto has always been "Have a kid, Go to jail".
