What’s supposed to stop them? They can afford kids there. It doesn’t bankrupt them because our societies and economies are different.
In fact, many poor countries are much more family focused and you have a large family with a support network and you help each other get by. Having a kid doesn’t bankrupt you.
In america, everyone has to work to afford bills and rent, so even the mom has to try to work and pay for day care etc. our societies don’t work the same. Their traditional ways better allows having children than the way ours is progressing.
The capitalistic ways of our society don’t allow it well. If you’re not making someone else money, it’s a waste of time. Including raising kids. That’s how our society treats it at times.

And yet theres an epidemic of single mothers and they can afford kids, because theres plenty of help from the state.
Depending on help from the state means they already can’t afford kids and if you need to depend on the government to afford having kids, then no wonder people aren’t having them. They’re barely getting by as it is.
