i get it all the tme when I mention that I am one of nine children...
“Americas babies are coming from non-citizens.”
The la raza and mecha dolts routinely declare that they “...will conquer America through the wombs of our women.”
Western values are promoted by Western children.
......The la raza and mecha dolts ...and their Vatican masters
True, but my wife and I will be US citizens in two years...
Not everyone moving to the US is an illegal...
We have 3 children, all US born.
As an aside, I like the author’s reference to the 2% warrior class. I can only dream of a day when the members of that class are actually recognized as such. I hear so much from politicians about “the debt owed these soldiers”, yet payment of that debt so often takes the form of words or meaningless gestures.
How about a revitalized, efficient VA system, at least a lifetime deduction on fed income tax for those who served in a combat zone (though obviously eliminated would be better), reduced (or eliminated) fees for things such as license plates (we already have special plates for vets in most states, how about an adjusted rate to go with them). As long as I’m dreaming, I wouldn’t mind seeing such “super-citizens” accorded some form of additional social status privilege in society.

“Your gonna have to buy a LOT of carbon credits to cover those 9 C02 emitters Shmuley, get out your checkbook and send a check to:”
And how many Gore children are there? Three, or is it four? I believe Al needs to buy some more carbon credits himself.
I’ve heard their are other ways to promote Western values. But nah, that can’t be true. You must be right. Roll out them babies.
Just read your home page. Maya Grace is beautiful, and to think you have two new blessings coming into your life soon.
Please let us know when they arrive.
You are truly blessed.
Yeah, but Westerners are too soft to promote those other methods.
There are too many great points in this piece to single any one out. What this writer has described is a primary symptom of the slow but steady death of Western culture.
Wow, I must have started early. I was a grandma by the time I was 40.
I am regretful that we stopped at four. I wish we had gone on to have a dozen.
Why? Because one of the four was called home to heaven early.
And, the three are grown and flown to far off places. I always thought I would have a bunch of adult children dropping by, grandchildren under my feet, and family all around.
Alas, they are all scattered to the four corners. I wish for grandchildren close by to love, hug, and to tell stories about the old days. We only get that a few days a year, if we are lucky.
And I have no doubt they will. Of course, then they'll turn it into a larger version of Mexico and have to start looking around for a new Goose that lays Golden Eggs.
Abstinence from child-rearing, also, is part of a system of values albeit one which will not be able to sustain itself for much more than half a century from now. The math doesn't lie, and the moral void created by European nihilism will be filled by something. The question is, what?
Nihilism is not the only reason people don’t have children. For some, it is a deep concern for the world, the very opposite of nihilism.
That is not criticism. It is a lot of kids. Even back in the good ol' days that was a lot of kids. Especially considering that then to have eight living children you would probably have gone through 20 pregnancies.
It is quite an accomplishment. So "wow" indeed.
Nope that trend is reversing. Now it is the more educated and wealthier who are having three, four or five children.
