I have been married to my wife for nearly 20 years. We have six children. Quite frankly, we were never able to "afford it" by the definitions westerners use to justify having children. But we did. I live with constant anxiety about the future. I have absolutely no faith in any governments, institutions or churches here or around the world. They are all complicit in this malaise. More and more, I feel like we are on our own. Like so many of us, my ancestors were homesteaders. They knew how to survive with much less (and still have children). We now live as the human equivalent of declawed housecats. That is what this era has done to us. We have maintained little to none of the knowledge needed to survive outside of this house of cards. I resent this modern life while being grateful for the things it has provided me. I am dependant on it. I also do not think there was anything glamorous about how earlier generations lived. They were simply surviving. I do not feel prepared for the future. I am not confident that we are ready for what's coming next.

As a 25-year old, I can safely say everything that the government is doing is very disheartening to start/create a family; between the increased economy, low wages, and property increase; it is making it difficult to increase the population. The government is trying to mask their plans with increased benefits such as children allowance, free child care etc. (at least in my country) however it is not enough unless you are really family driven....

Last 10 years have been hell for me. The mental illness of my neighbors have been unbearable. I have been stalked sooo many times that i am broken.

[@johenderson3742]

Same here. People around me are so anti social. Perhaps no-one can even find a nice partner due to the societal degradation. No-one around me is civil or kind.

[@lisajansson4157]

I agree with you. I've been noticing the absence of babies and young children for several years now. It's scarry. What will come of us? And its not just the lack of having babies, the young people now often can't find a spouse or even friends in real life.

[@hh03945-y]

I'd have another child if: 1. we didn't need both of us working to financially have our home. 2. everyone is getting cancer and autoimmune diseases, so at the time I am having babies, instead of having my parents and parents-in-law help us, we are instead struggling with baby and taking parents to cancer appointments, organizing their funerals and grieving, and going back to work. Where amongst that can I have another baby? 2 parents have died, another given months to live, the other also very ill, I have no time, working and so many medical appointments and grief.

It is a problem right over the horizon. Many will not see it coming until it is too late. I hope we wake up and address the issue soon.

[@michaelqdlap]

Ecologically speaking, when a species experiences a population explosion, as we have since the industrial revolution, but especially in the last 100 years (2billion in 1920 and to now over 8billion), it then experiences some degree of population crash followed by a rebound and a new equilibirun. The world is changing soo fast, its hard to know what will happen. You say there are unknown problems ahead, but there are also unknown solutions. I also think partly people are having children less because the future is portrayed as gloomy, so emphasing the gloominess because of low birth rates may not necessarily raise them. Personally, I don't want to have continually rising populations, especially if we also want to lift as many people as possible up to Western standards of living, because we are not yet at a point where we can live gently on the Earth.

Never been such a huge divide between rich and poor. Public billionaires and private trillionaires what has this world come to?

[@norxgirl1]

Maybe baby farms, so rich people will at least have servants....

[@wtf_dave01]

I've noticed too. They've completely demoralized young people.

[@jayc342009]

I'm not bringing children into a world of poverty just so they can work for billionaires, pay crazy high taxes and never be able to afford a home.

[@tommiller7177]

I'm not losing any sleep thinking about declining birth rates. The population to be concerned about is those in power that cause these endless wars. Those who manipulate money for their own gain. The deep entrenched corruption of private companies that own governments. There are 8 billion people on this planet. A constant increase during my lifetime. Are things better overall today vs. 25 years ago??

[@SootyPhoenix]

Low birth rates are not a problem because we need the world population to increase. They are a problem because the average age of the population is increasing. An old population is an economically/productively unsustainable one. To say the unsayable, people today live too long, on average.

Everyday around 60.000 perople are born in India, humanity is like a pest over the planet, we are far from dissapearing. Now people in rich countries is another story but with the people born by accident in the 3rd world is more than enough.

[@brien656]

In my opion It's the greed of the ones in contol that has done this to western culture,.When people are taught to directly or indirectly to want more than just an average life. When working takes up all the time that earlier was devoted to the Family. When greed takes the place of everything else, this is what you get. They had made having or even wanting to start a Family undesirable because you then can't afford everything that you just need to live and support a family. When did this start? In the 1900s with the industrial revolution. At one time the poor had bigger families. Now the poor/ the lower income people don't. Where do you find it that both parents have to work to have enough and, they because of the costs envolved only have 1 child. some 2 but others none and the relationship usually ends in no more than 5 years.Again, it's the fault of those in power,.they caused this to happen.
