[A. Pole]

For some, deciding to have children is a selfish act. Others decide not to have children because they worry about not being able to provide health care, education, AND time for them.

This is a receipe for the death of a nation. Most of people over the history were poor, still they had children.

Societies wich put affluence before children cannot reproduce themselves and have to be replaced by people from outside.

Most of people over the history were poor, still they had children.

Yet we hear over and over again that if people can't afford to provide adequately for their children, they shouldn't have them.

Societies wich put affluence before children cannot reproduce themselves and have to be replaced by people from outside.

That's true.
