Hungary’s pro-family culture has resulted in a rising fertility rate for married women which is “winding back the clock” on demographic decline — a trend once deemed irreversible in Europe and used by globalists to justify mass migration from the third world.
“The country is not just experiencing a fertility spike; Hungary is winding back the clock on much of the fertility and family-structure transition that demographers have long considered inevitable,” writes the author of “Is Hungary Experiencing a Policy-Induced Baby Boom?” from the Institute for Family Studies website.
“That’s unusual,” author Lyman Stone wrote, “as most countries around the world are currently experiencing stable or falling fertility, especially in Europe.”
Mr Stone suggests that fiscal implications — such as subsidies for married couples buying houses, a change in tax deductions for children, and a growing economy — likely only played a small part on their own and estimates that those factors, coupled with cultural policies, were what had brought about the rise in fertility rate.
Stone points to Hungary’s pro-family constitution adopted in 2011 which stated that “We believe that our children and grandchildren will make Hungary great again,” and which defends “the institution of marriage as the union of a man and a woman… and the family as the basis of the nation’s survival.”
Stone also pointed to the Hungarian “marriage boom”, which “starting around 2012, but really taking off in 2015 and 2016″ saw women in Hungary becoming more likely to get married — particularly at a younger age which offers a wider window for natural fertility (which is below the age of 35).

Good news.
Not likely here as brainwashed as women are
Holy Goulash!
It’s so simple that the Western countries could do this, too. But it’s too normal.
The first generation of Hungarian women not raised under Communism.
Yes. The government is keeping muzzies out of Hungary. That lowers taxes because there are no parasites streaming into the country. Hungarians can feel safe and confident in their future, and have babies.
Every other country MUST do the same thing.
Liberals convince women than men are bad and kill the baby
How stupid is that ?
I wouldn’t need an airplane to fly there.
I’d simply pole-vault.
“Do you waaaaant... do you waaaaaant... to come back to my place, bouncy bouncy?”
After having been to Hungary several times, I volunteer to personally raise this rate anytime they offer!!!
We need for stable families to have that third kid. Do what they’re doing.
My nipples explode with delight!
There is no way to know whether that is accurate until enough time has passed to discern a long-term upward trend in fertility. I would say ten years at least.
It's really annoying when writers just assert something as true when they cannot possibly know.
"If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me? I... I am no longer infected. "
Have you been to Budapest? Half of my family tree is from there.
