I’ve always felt the opposite. Having children is a privilege. That’s not to say that just to get on a high horse about it, it’s something my SO and I have talked at length about (we have two, and because of medical complications cannot have more) and we’ve both come to the conclusion that children are a gift from God. Obviously our religion has a lot to do with the perspective that having them are a privilege. It’s only within the last few years that the having children is considered a problem. I think there’s probably a direct causation there with the decline of the Judeo-Christian religions overall.
