[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps I missed something - but I can't believe that, in three pages, NOT ONE person mentioned environmental considerations.

For such a seemingly educated group of women, I don't quite understand - in light of global pressures that have a high potential to affect this planet into the future - how three or four (or more?!?) can even be a consideration... Seems very, very selfish, IMHO.

Have one... Maybe two? Then. just. stop. already.

Population growth is already projected to peak in the next 50 years before a decline. Too precipitous a decline will have disastrous economic consequences. Since overall the birth rate is stablized or declining worldwide I don't think this concern is as thought out as it should be. There will be less humans on the earth, but that decline should be gradual if we want to take care of elder populations as they age and die. [/quote]
