BS
They dont want to afford it. They dont have kids for the same reason.
People have been taught that they have to have the newest and best everything.
People have been taught that they have to have multiple vacations every year.
Having these material good things make being married and having children unaffordable. Having children requires sacrifices of those good things. People dont like sacrifices so they use contraceptives and get abortions.
"I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby," Obama said of his daughters. Well he is not the only parent that thinks that way.
Marriage and children 60 years ago were the greatest good. It was an expectation drilled in to the heads of children that you would grow up, get married and have children.
Now there is even a fear of marriage. Having children is a burden. We value the easy life and material things more than children or producing another generation of our people.
Our culture is in the toilet and swirling the drain.
No, actually they cant afford it. They and their parents were sold a bill of goods and were told the only way to get ahead was with a college education. They are saddled with huge student loans and they have a degree in womens studies or some other weird thing.
I agree with you that people think they are entitled to the newest and best and that has also crippled an entire generation.
Hollywood has also changed from stories that ended in.....and they got married and lived happily ever after, to....hook up, tragic unhappy lives, and an abortion so they can hook up with someone else.
