Not just outdated values, but skewed. The idea that having kids is something that requires you to be a wage slave lacks imagination and perspective.
You can absolutely raise children without a high salaried position, big house and tons of plastic junk. People do it all the time.
In this case the author is in an even better position - he has savings, a house, a growing business, and has managed to get his expenses down to the point where he's breaking even. That's great! Why would anyone think this lifestyle would make him ineligible for parenthood?
Some would say kids would benefit more from a parent with this lifestyle (happy, living with purpose, knows how to budget, flexible work situation that lets them be around more often) than the big house and toys that the average American developer's job gets you.
