Lucky number 13 and the ladies are back with another interesting topic. Is having children keeping us from accumulating wealth? The ladies discuss the pros and cons of being childless and single. Women who stay single and don't have kids are getting richer. Forgoing marriage and parenthood has a bigger payoff for American women than men, according to new research. Does the workplace and society unjustly tax the working/professional woman for deciding to have children? And is there a difference between black/brown women with children, and their white counterparts, as far as wealth accumulation is concerned? But before they dive into their topic, Liz discusses the conviction and sentencing of Lesandro Junior Guzman Feliz's murderers and the tragic news of Erin Merdy, a mother charged with murdering for drowning her 3 children in Coney Island. What compels a person to commit murder and are our health care professionals doing enough to ensure the mental health of parents? Is it the communities responsibilities to speak up and report concerning behavior?
