Maye Musk is 78 years old and has a fortune that most mothers will never see. So when she said on Fox & Friends that you don’t need money to have children, downplaying the financial sacrifices of raising kids, the comment did not go over well everywhere.

Caitlyn Jenner came out in support of her: “100% agree”, she wrote. On the other side, thousands of users reminded her that talking about love without talking about diapers, daycare, and bills is a luxury not everyone can afford.

Is she right to place emotional value above money, or is it easy to talk like that when you’ve never lacked anything?
