Why did the share of childless women 35-44 suddenly drop 5 points around 2012? Such a massive difference must be a change in measurement methodology?

Quite a good survey, touches on many of the direct factors, but misses the underlying issues of social status and value of parenthood and children.<p>Children are not wanted in society. How many businesses have creches or play areas for their employees&#x27; children? How many restaurants actively encourage families with children? How many downtown streets have playgrounds? How much status does having two children rather than one get you? (Answer: sympathy, not status.)<p>It&#x27;s no wonder that many people are choosing to do other things. Until the culture changes, the trend will continue.

The future is bleak<p>Who would have kids these days?<p>Be Fair, why would you bring a kid into this shit damaged world<p>Plus some of my friends are now not dating people who have been jabbed because they are frightened of the long term consequences of infertility in men and women.<p>The mind boggles<p>The youth of today have so much to worry about.<p>I consider myself veryt fortunate to have been born in the mid 50&#x27;<p>I have had an immense amount of freedom in my life which has slowly been taken away from the young people of today.<p>In my 20&#x27;s and 30&#x27;s I used to spend most of the summer travelling around the wonderfull free music festivals. Torpedo fair, Elephant fair and Stonehenge.<p>The Castlemorton 1992 Free music festival, resulted in the introduction of the infamous Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, a carefully-worded piece of legislation designed to obliterate acid house culture.<p>In section 63(1)(b), it outlawed people gathering listening to music “predominantly characterised by the emission of a succession of repetitive beats”. Unlicensed raves and free music festivals were banned forever.<p>The fucking law!<p>you now you have to have insurance and all that bullshit.

In a capitalist economy, what do we do when we want more of something? Buehler? Buehler?<p>This is no big mystery. People simply are not being paid enough to give their own children the kind of life they had growing up. The world we are living in is not a world fit for children.<p>All the money is going to Elon Musk--that&#x27;s why he&#x27;s having all the babies :-)
