Yeah, they're all having their shocked pikachu face on when people don't have babies. If anybody would take a random sample of women and check whether they would have a baby in their position the answer would almost always be no. Now it feels like only people that are dead set on having babies that go for them when the replacement rate needs plenty of people having 3+ to make up for single kid and people who struggle making one or can't find a partner.

So to fix it we only need better economy, minimum wage, median wage, housing affordability, generous parental leave, day care and kindergarten heavily subsidised, schooling subsidised up to uni and 30h week with unpaid overtime illegal. I really don't see this happening with increasing pension and healthcare cost for the elderly.
