Apparently, the best way for people to have more kids is for governments to jack up social spending and respect family choices

    An article about population decline on a website literally called “Stop Population Decline” doesn’t give me the impression it’ll be fully balanced and unbiased.

      Why does it make it dubious that the subject of a website is in its name? What if a website called “Stop Food Waste” takes about food waste?

      I read the article and I encourage you to do the same if you did not already.

      TLDR: addressing the gender wage gap, stronger public services and better parental leave for mothers and fathers seems to boost fertility rates. The prose is a little strange as if written by someone whose english is not their first language, but who am I to judge lol

        Um, because they already have a clear agenda? They could be likely to be selective with their sources, not report on things that go against their view, etc.

        I read the article, thank you.
