That's the wrong angle to look at it from. You pay for public schools too, even though you had nothing to do with those pregnancies either. It's not about their tax liability versus yours. It's, as you mention, the negative tax liability that is unfair. There should never be a financial gain from having children (for example, the EIC.) That introduces the wrong motivations.
