>Low birth rates may be exacerbated at the moment by the economy, but people's preference for their careers and the quality and availability of modern entertainment (why raise kids when you can travel, binge watch shows on Netflix, play video games, etc.) are more probable causes
Your comment fits your name, it is callous, lacking empathy and painfully out of touch. The idea that Netflix is the reason people aren't having kids in simply absurd...
- HenryKissinger 6y agoIt is a fact that as men and women become more educated and start earning greater incomes, they have fewer offspring. This trend has been observed on every continent. Greater incomes give one access to more of the finer things in life, which distracts from family planning. For better or worse.

I promise you that high school dropouts with 5 kids are watching more netflix and playing more video games than a couple with graduate degrees from Stanford.
