Middle class life in Netherlands is objectively very good but it isn’t like they have a lot of kids their either[/quote]
Across all societies, the trend is that as countries get wealthier and women get more freedom and education, fertility rates fall. Basically, when given a choice, women will typically choose to have fewer kids. [/quote]

While true, if you inspect closer it’s due to middle income trap.

Women in House holds making over 500k are having more kids.

The number of vc and hedge fund types I come across are 4 kids or more families.

I think it is women with educations but income constraints will chose to have less kids (typical college grad woman in the middle class).

Women with no educations OR no resource constraints will have more kids
