The UK, Canada, France and Mexico are all where it should be.

I'm going to stop paying half my taxes....
Hey don't get me wrong, I've been single up until a few years ago and felt the way you did. Even now wife doesn't work (Stay at home mom). When I claimed my son last year, for the first time I got a fat rebate. I agree the differences is not right but it is what it is. Raising taxes on families is a political no no.

It's not like you get taxed less as, you just get a child credit. The difference is that one's expenses increase quite a bit once you have a kid.
