Will the current young people start having families when they get older?

[jjrflorida]

[blackburn21]

I plan to. I want to raise a strong, independent person who can manage a life in this caotic world. I think kind hearted people with good heads on their shoulders will be needed in the future. I know my mistakes, I also know my parents' mistakes, and I want to learn from them and give that little human the best a parent can give them.

I think you'll have to ask them. No way to know except through the people who are the current crop.

I think the women will let their biological clocks run out so it will be the next generation that will have to decide. Some millennials will panic and have one but it will be below replacement levels which explains the large immigration be allowed.

[BCA6010]

The men maybe. The women won't realize they wanted that until it's getting too late for them.

Optimistically speaking... Maybe that will lead to more attention put into the foster care system...

[Apple1996]

Not the ones that are anti kid lol

[AutumnSerenity]

Nope. Between the housing crisis and WW3, having kids is a hard pass for Gen Z and young Millennials.

[adam6402]

It's not a housing crisis or a so-called WW3 that’s going to cause the younger generation to not have kids, it’s the piss poor defeatist attitude of the upcoming Western generation that's killing it.

Do you really think the poor communities in third-world countries care about a housing crisis? They live in something we wouldn’t even call a house and barely have access to basic life necessities, yet they still can still raise families larger than most Western families.

[AutumnSerenity]

Having kids in poverty is often a decision made by the less educated. It’s a new era - people know better.

[sheikalana]

I hope so. However, I see younger generations less interested in getting married or having a family more than ever.

Yes, my kids are in no hurry

[exitseven]

A lot of these kids were indoctrinated to believe that global warming is real and they do not want to bring any kids into a world that is supposed to end in 7 more years.

[adam6402]

Exactly... my generation is literally the most useless and crippling generation the world has ever had to put up with. We need to start raising Western kids in third-world countries so they can learn to appreciate the things they have in this life from a young age rather than growing up with a victimized mindset thinking the world is out to get them down.

[exitseven]

@adam6402 your parents did a good job with you

[magiusX26]

some will, at least some simblance of the spirit of the term. though i suspect a greatly reduced number will with each generation moving forward.

[pickles77]

Probably at a lower rate. In the younger generation alone the amount of kids that are now gay or trans has increased significantly in comparison to previous years and not organically obviously.

[KrakenAttackin]

The women will make a bunch of Chadling's, be single mothers, and keep having "hot girl summer's"; this much is for sure.

[WhitneySnow]

Some older people in Gen Z are already getting married and having kids

[TheSpaceGnome]

I'm not going to have kids, I do want a wife though.

[Anonymous]

Nah they're clockingnon to the fact the planet is overpopulated and too far gone to save

[Twalli]

Not all of them. Some people don't want kids. My family will probably die with my generation since neither my sister nor I want kids.

[slatyb]

No. They can't afford housing.

[JacobJordan]

Highly unlikely if things don't change

[NamerOfStars]

Some- but for most, I wouldn't bet on it.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

Depends if they want to have kids or not.

[LiamJHayden]

I can't but I'd consider adoption.

[Luméa]

Yes i will, i hope so

[Likes2drive]

Maybe not as many and not as many marriages

[Anonymous]

Yhey probably think they will. Half won't.

[OGname2]

No thanks

[Iron_Man]

Maybe so

[Anonymous]

Hell nah
