I do the personnel stuff for my office, and I'm also a mom, and trust me, there's absolutly NO economic incentive. The child support that the women recieve probably barely covers the cost of food for the child (especially infants when you have to buy formula). Unless the father is a doctor or lawyer - your statement is absolutely not true. If anything, adoption is a bigger economic incentive - many couples would pay a lot of $ for a child, especially a newborn.
