#2 Couples can limit the number of their children with just a little pill.

Before, after or with a visit to the ever convenient drive-up for a DNC.

#4 As we have seen in country after country that becomes a 2nd or 1st world country, their population naturally declines. People like their pleasures, you don't need extra hands to help out around the house and kids are bloody expensive.

All that together makes richer countries naturally stop having kids and their replacement rate declines below replacement levels.

Get the world richer, they have less kids.

#5 The commandment to 'honor thy father and mother' was to insure they were taken care of in later life. Since they've moved that to the state, many in the 1st world don't believe in having kids around to do that. Given that the evil vile patriarchy spent a lot of effort in the early 20th century to reduce child mortality rates and fatal complications of birthing, the need to have many was also impacted.

#6 I remember thinking at the time I was living in insane times, with the Club of Rome and all. How quaint.

#7 And yet, the pendulum is swinging back in some circles. In addition to the Jews and Christians of Israel, in upper middle class America Ivanka Trump with her three children is perfectly on trend, whether or not the wife is working. Both of Mr. Wife’s nieces went beyond two: the dentist has four and the nurse practitioner has three. One of my fosterlings has four; she may not be done yet, though she and her husband count as lower middle rather than upper middle class.
