America’s next generation of youngsters should be called “Generation Rex.” If you’re wondering why playgrounds around the city are so quiet and dog runs are packed, a new report has an answer: More and more US women are forgoing motherhood and getting their maternal kicks by owning handbag-size canines.
Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that a big drop in the number of babies born to women ages 15 to 29 corresponds with a huge increase in the number of tiny pooches owned by young US women, reports the business-news site Quartz.
Dog-crazy New York ladies told The Post that they aren’t surprised by the findings — and that they happily gave up diaper changes, temper tantrums and college funds for the easy affection of their doggy “child.”
“I’d rather have a dog over a kid,” declared Sara Foster, 30, a Chelsea equities trader who says her French bulldog, Maddie, brings her more joy than a child.
“It’s just less work and, honestly, I have more time to go out. You ;. don’t have to get a baby sitter.” The federal data behind the report show that over the past seven years, the number of live births per 1,000 women between ages 15 and 29 in America has plunged 9 percent.

I’m sure they can take care of themselves. But what business does someone have trying to badger them into signing up for that kind of commitment when government and society have tilted the risk/reward ratio for having children into the negative?

I’ll be darned,a Freeper who feels the way the libs feel about the white race.

My vote (and my wife’s) is for children AND dogs.
Exactly
Badger?When you are happy you want to share your happiness.Saying to a group of young women the joy of having a child is fun.They just need a little encouragement.
My dogs are the best alarm protection I can have.
NO ONE gets within a 1/4 mile of my property without one of them telling me so.
Encourage away. They probably give you a polite reponse while they are thinking to themselves that some people should mind their own business.
I get it. Kids are great and all that. I raised one. Been there done that. If she asks me for advice on the subject I would advise against having kids. If I had a son I would offer to pay for the vasectomy if he wanted one. It was hard enough when mine was born. But now...? No way in hell would I take a conscious decision to have kids. Not in the current environment.
To the Muslims’ delight.
Wait until you say, "It's just a dog." when they try to justify 4-5 figure veterinary treatments for their "kids". That is fun to watch.
Just another reason I advise high schoolers to go into veterinary medicine instead of med school.
This article makes me very sad :’(
And the Mexicans' as well. I've said for a long time, decades into the future, the two will be fighting it out for the spoils of a dead America.
If they don't believe they're fit to raise children, chances are they're probably right.
These women don’t know what they’re missing!
Heaven is an American salary, an English house, a Chinese cook, and a Japanese wife.

Don’t ask me... I married a Mexican. :(
My wife and I sure did. It instilled a 'don't let this happen to YOUR family' attitude within us, so we give OUR children that which we never had. Hell, I lost count of how many times my mother has been married now. I think she's always on the lookout for a future ex-husband. I have nothing to do with her. She's a loser - Another thing I learned is that it's never good to closely associate with losers, unless you want to lose along with them(I don't care if I happen to be related to them). Nothing good ever comes out of hanging around bad people. We try to instill those concepts within our children as well - I don't care if it results in them being snobbish assholes or without any "friends". I think they'll be better for it in the long run.
“We cannot figure out why they adopted black children before trying to have a family themselves?!”
Because they want to make orphaned children part of their family instead of creating more. And most of these children are black. Very very noble IMO. Unfortunately the racists will make this far more difficult for the parents and kids than it has to be.
The figure can be kept with a personal trainer/dietician or surrogate mother so I don’t think that is the reason.
