Clinton believes people need to take ownership of their life choices. If you choose to have a kid, then figure out how you're going to be a parent and work to support the child. While Clinton acknowledged that money gives people more options, she does not believe those without financial privilege should sit around complaining. 

"Some women are not comfortable working at the pace and intensity you have to work at in these jobs. … Other women don’t break a sweat. …They have four or five, six kids. They’re highly organized, they have very supportive networks,” Clinton told Marie Claire.

She also believes workplaces should be more flexible to enable women to juggle the care of children and aging parents.
