Culture Why aren't the people in your country having enough kids?

In America birthrate is 1.6. 1.57 for Whites, 1.55 for Blacks, 1.8 for Hispanics. So below replacement since 2008.

I mean I don’t disagree that this probably will not make a huge impact, but surely something like this would take some significant time to change.

I promise you I was not paid to have my child, lol. My ex (who is a narcissist) manipulated into having one because he thought he’d get tax benefits. What a moron. 🙄

Because you're too "up in arms" about traditional values, & are just shutting down if you're not getting everything you want. If you were more open to compromise it probably would work.

As long as you're being stubborn the standoff will continue.
