Women should decide for themselves if they will have children or avoid it.

I can only guess what you might mean by “Why don’t mothers get paid for their contributions to the species?”

Seems to me that women should be paid more than men whether of not women decide to have children or to hold off.

Women can then use that incremental income to decide to hold off having children and thereby reduce the carbon footprint of the human species simply by reducing the population.

Or women could choose the extra income pay for the added expenses of having childre.

Either way, let’s pay women more than men so that women can more easily make the choice about having children, which it should be their decision to make.
