It’s not a fertility crisis. It’s an economic crisis.

I’m “under babied” because I’ve been UNDER PAID my entire life. My student loans and just surviving has been a lot. Having a kid was the last thing on my mind 🤷🏻♀️

The change in language from birth rate to fertility rate does not sit well with me at all

Where are they getting their numbers? As far as I know fertility tests are not being given to teenagers on mass and definitely not since the 70’s. I am 40 and I have never had a doctor ask me if I want to test my fertility. Who are they testing? What is this study? I want peer reviewed studies references and I want to know who funded them.

Idk my kids aren’t having kids because the world is going to shit and we will likely run out of resources, not really the money thing.

The financial cost is only part of the problem. There is also the time cost, emotional cost, opportunity cost, vulnerability cost....

In 2026, the cost of raising a child from birth through age 18 has climbed to an estimated $303,418. Which would take approximately 20 years to pay at 7.25/hr.

Annual cost of daycare in West Michigan for 2 children was $20,000 🙃 The cost is THE ONLY reason we decided to stop at two.

I wanted to have 3 or 4 kids. I can afford 1 if I'm lucky.

Daycare is two mortgage payments. It’s a real financial decision to have few children.
