    There is more than enough people in the world right now. This is good.

  2. Utah known for having the highest fertility rate for decades just suddenly drops

    Considering i can barely afford myself, why would I feel the need to bring another life in?

    I see a lot of people quick to talk about how having kids is expensive, but for me it’s just not desirable. My wife and I live in a low cost of living area and have a very nice income. Yet we are very happily child free.

    First off, it’s just not a desirable thing. We love our life together and making each other happy. Brining in a very needy 3rd person isn’t going to be an improvement.

    Second, the state of the world sucks. I hope it gets better. We’re on target to die worth between $3-5 million, and I’ll leave it in a trust to provide scholarships to local kids to help make it better. But I don’t trust that the world will improve enough to leave behind kids.

    I heard a big reason for it is that pregnancy in young women 15-22 have dropped significantly.

  6. Meanwhile, *Futility* rates have soared to record levels as hundreds of millions of people realized that their choices are futile.

  7. I’m not sure I would want to have kids in this country. The values and people here are not necessarily what I would want to expose a child to willingly. Not to mention the economics of raising a child to a high standard are incredibly daunting, if not completely financially infeasible and reckless.

  8. Half the people I know with babys had to go through fertility treatments including IVF and half the people I know without babys are still going through fertility treatments.

    Every time these stats are posted I hate that it’s phrased as “fertility rate” that makes it sound like a biological decline in ability to reproduce. I have no idea why that ended up as the primary term they use for this.

    This is due to decline of accidental pregnancies, and now most babies are born by deliberate choice of their parents. To maintain stable population, you need everyone making the choice of having TWO kids. But there will always be a sizeable portion of people who doesn’t feel like they want a kid, let alone two.

    Where do these stats come from? What women report on their fertility? Shouldn’t this be labeled birth rates decrease or something to that effect?

    You should have to pass an IQ test to have children. Sorry not sorry

    Oh god I hope we don’t have a Handmaid’s tale situation in the future…

    And people wonder there’s such a push to make abortion illegal in *any and all* cases. Gotta have workers for the mines.

    This is one of the major reasons behind why RoevWade is overturned, among other things. Force more births

    The Great Recession. Millions of Americans never born thanks to 2007-8.

  17. Louisiana doesn’t surprise me, the majority of people from my highschool immediately settled down and had kids within a couple years of graduating

    We are getting it in KY! Hopefully, that ain’t counting ya’lls, sisters, though 🤣
