I'm from Germany and here everybody gets money for having children. Don't know if that's true in the US.

Sort of. Children and other dependents give you tax breaks in the US, but no direct financial aid unless you qualify for certain limited welfare programs. That's at the federal level; some states might expand on that, but I can't speak for all of them.
