Britain’s ‘missing babies’ can be blamed on immature men who are delaying responsibilities until later in life, according to a report.
Research from the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) think tank predicts around 600,000 young women may miss out on motherhood partly because men don’t feel ready for children until they get older.
In the report, called Baby Bust, the organisation says there are a range of reasons for falling birth rates including the cost of childcare, wanting to move into a larger house, prioritising a career or not finding the right partner.
But it also attributes some of the drop to a ‘delay’ in the maturation rates of young men.
‘In previous generations, children left school in their early to mid teens and went into the workplace,’ the report reads.
‘For boys this meant learning responsibility, earning money and being mentored by adult men. Boys matured and, in doing so, became marriageable.
‘In 21st century Britain, adolescence now extends well into the early twenties.
‘In the past, a 24-year-old man would have been likely to be married, have a child and have been working for the best part of a decade. Now, the average age of leaving home for a young man sits at 25, three years older than for young women.’

It certainly isn't immature women who refuse to grow up and pick one man to settle down with.
Yes, the problem is always men.
Yep. Always the man’s fault.
It’s even worse in Italy. Boys stay with Mama until she becomes too old to cook and do laundry for them.
Women told men to leave them alone and never approach them.
Men said, OK.
A lot of young women are stepping up and doing their part — by pumping 4 or 5 babies with different guys. I suppose that’s the mature thing to do. And it’s also one reason why young men don’t want to form a permanent bond with that crop of young women.
I wonder if the authors would be OK with man marrying a woman a few years younger than himself?
That, and that so many have become tee-totaled beaches with crazy far-left views.
Half of the problem is immature men. The root problem is a culture and civilization which promotes immature practices and outlooks.
True.
It’s biological, to a large degree. Successful propagation of ones genetics, from a man’s perspective, requires a woman who will be monogamous. Men today know, at a primal level, that the chances of finding such a woman have diminished significantly as our culture has ‘evolved’. They’re still out there, but their numbers are few.
Throughout history men always shown up for their part in reproduction and any hesitant young male is putty in the hands of a pretty female, for sex or even for marriage.
Something changed in reproduction but it isn’t that the male isn’t present and available, the answer is the female.
“A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle” has come home to roost.
(Well there’s a horrible mixed metaphor.)
So much projection. If a woman wants a child with a man, the woman has to be a wife to whom the man wants to have a child with.
This is easily 90% a modern woman’s problem and dilemma.
If a typical woman treats a typica; man well, provides real comfort and peace that woman will have a man who will die to protect and provide for her.
The problem is most women of the west are now terminally ill with feminism and the idea they are strong and independent with no appreciation for how it is they have it so good.
Social media, and dating apps have helped turn the knob of natural selection past 11.
There’s also something that turns men off when their dating pool has one or more children from one or more fathers, and will still reject most men. The juice ceases to be worth the squeeze.
Had the same response to reading this.
I don’t doubt immature men are part of the problem.
The other part are the women not worth marriage and a list of 20 Middle Easterners they’ve shagged.
So shift to marrying "more-mature" men! Problem solved!
Regards,
I consider this the law of unintended consequences in action. The west changes marriage from the spoken vows (death till us part, good times and bad, forsaking all others) and institutes no fault divorce that nearly always ends up in a taking of a man’s income and gives it to the ex-wife in the form of alimony and/or child support.
The young men now this article is complaining about has had a couple of generations of this experiment to look over first hand. They’ve witnessed the millions of men who have been run through the system and said “nah bro, I’m good. I don’t want to get married. In this era of women being strong, independent and not needing a man, can you blame men for looking at marriage as a deal they might not want?
Both sexes are at fault, each in its own way.

That just means those men are insecure! Britain will soon see to more indoctrination for boys in public school!
Britain’s empty schools and day care centers have been and will be filled by the offspring of nonwhite, non-British immigrants, especially Muslims. Ditto for France, Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland, Belgium, Spain, etc.
Doesn’t matter. the left will always blame the man.
