Little evidence to support a direct causation, Macroeconomics

Assignment Help:

As it turns out, there is little evidence to support a direct causation between income and children. (If I am poor, then I will decide to have a lot of children? Alternatively: I have a lot of children therefore I am poor financially?) In reality, there is an *omitted variable* that has a direct effect on both income and the number of children in a household. What do you think this omitted variable is?
