if you want women to pop out babies during their 20's, you better give them a few incentives. shorten high school and college each by one year, and institutionalize childcare and maternity leave.

You have a point.
I think some women are marvelous moms and others really suck at it. Maybe one half should pay the other to stay home and have and raise kids for society.

I believe that most people are psychologically unfit to have children (at least in America). It is better if most people forego children anyway since most Americans tend to stay at a mental age of about 13 years old no matter their biological age.

Secondly American society is NOT Socialist Europe. Unless you are very wealthy I don't see how the average person can afford to have kids at least not in high rent states like California or New York and unlike Europe, there are no long maternity leaves and/or subsidized childcare.

But American teenagers are too stupid and dumb to realize this that is why America has one of the highest teenage pregnancy rates. This is a shame and a disgrace. If your stupid azz can't feed em then don't breed em.
