This doesn't stop marriage, a married couple would see their income taxes halved if they play their cards right, for example if they had a partnership business - it just incentivizes young women to plan for a baby before they turn 30. A much better idea than importing a bunch of immigrants from other countries.
Doesn't that mainly incentivize working moms? Better would be exempting the dad if living with the mom.
Exactly… this is terrible policy.

…married and living with the mother.
This taxt exemption doesn't mean much money... It's enough or at least assists to cover the needs of a baby.
