...People get professional photos taken of their family pregnancy announcement just for the Facebook attention. Why else would you get a professional photo done?
On my closed childfree group, one guy posted a job description from the Upper East Side group, for a mother's helper - help the mother when not busy with the primary job, which is shooting and editing photos and film of the kids for social media sites.
I said we're a long way from hunting and gathering.
We are not procreating enough to replace ourselves which is what France did. At some point that trend is irreversible. I believe they're at that point.
Why do people think having alot of kids means your broke? Maybe for the working class. Studies show the wealthy are having more children than anyone else.
It's a new day and time. Large families are no longer synonymous with poverty and struggle.
This his what I’ve noticed for the most part. The people I know who have 5 are doing well financially. Well not sure on one. But I know the other two have money.
Another study showed that by 2050 only people of faith will be having children. Two Churches that seem to have large amounts of children are both Catholics and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I grew up in the Church and my wife grew up Catholic. That is why we have 6 kids.[/quote]
Add Amish, certain Jewish sects, and welfare bums.
Catholics used to have a lot of kids. It’s amazing how birth control can actually give people some choices in life. Like hey I enjoy having sex with my partner but I don’t necessarily want to end up with 9 kids as a result. People evolve.
I've noticed large families on social media. However, they all belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. For some reason, the social media influencer career has attracted many women from this faith. Therefore, it seems that a lot of people are having more kids.
i always thought people were having less kids now than they did in my grandparents day.
For sure. It seems like the average is still 2.5. I have just noticed more and more with 4 lately.
