I think that perfectly aligns with their take.
People in their 30s, married, tend to have more stable lives. They are in a position where they feel they are able to give that child a good life.
- biophysboy 9mo agoThat actually makes sense. I think I broadly agree with this. Maybe we can do 100 different little things to help people feel like they are "set up".
- SoftTalker 9mo agoPeak fertility though is early 20s. By the time people are in their 30s, having trouble getting pregnant is a more common problem.
- ziml77 9mo agoAre people who want to have kids really struggling to have them though? Keep in mind that fertility rate is not actually about fertility (not directly at least). It's a measure of the kids being had rather than a measure of the capability that the name would lead people to think.

- margalabargala 9mo agoExactly. So since we observe that actual birth rates among women in their 30s displays a different trend than that of women in their 20s, despite decreased natural fertility, there has to be more going on.
