This is not a good reason to have kids if that is your only reason. Assuming your kids can mow your lawn from age 8 to 18 and they only cost you $100k over their lifetime (I'm guessing a conservative estimate), you're basically paying $192/week for lawncare, not including payment "in kind" parenting.
