  In one memorable account, I spoke to a scientist working in some kind of environmental management role - where her husband ended up taking the job she would have otherwise by rank and seniority and she took a lesser role on the team so that she could stay home, IE: he did the field work, she did the office stuff. They had two kids and couldn't find care any longer for the kids as it was a supply-side issue. There's been this impression out there that Millenials (who are at child-bearing age now) are less likely to have children. It would be interesting to research if they are just sort of "late bloomers" who perhaps by virtue of WFH or maybe other TBD factors have decided it's now time to start a family.
