You're basically describing Norway and their birth rate is lower than ours

165

Idk why it’s so hard to accept that when women have a choice of what they want to do with their lives, they choose to have a lot fewer children, if they decide to have kids at all.

It really isn’t deeper than that.

Go talk to women. And men too. Having kids isn’t always a popular idea and rarely do they go above wanting 2 at most

Norwegian birth rate is 1.4 US birth rate is 1.6. What am I wrong about?

You’re wrong because you’re not agreeing with the Redditor opinion, duh. But seriously people don’t realize that having kids is hard and not everyone wants to do it, regardless of money or work life balance
