I am in a very small subset that got hosed by the age change. For almost any other family, the increased amount of the child tax credit (even if for one less year of a child's life) is a net gain over time. It was just bad timing for me because of the ages of my kids.

Yea but that didn't take effect this year, it's been in place for a while so had Trump's tax plan not gone into effect you would be even more screwed.
