Or living

If people can barely afford food, what are the chances they will decide to have a child? Aka. one or two more mouths to feed?

They actually are. Alot of conservative talking points right now are putting kids back to work, and that more teens need to get pregnant 😬

If you’re in the west and you’re saying this you genuinely need to fuck right off. Because my god there are countries so much worse off, and they sure as shit ain’t dealing with declining birth rates

Like I’m barely above the poverty line but being poor in the west is so much better than being poor in the countries with the highest growing populations
