[quote=Anonymous]OP, I suspect it has to do with people wanting you to have kids to either be their grandchildren or cousins. That's selfish.

The comments about how having children is selfish are ridiculous. Society will literally collapse if everyone stops having children. And that may be good for the planet, but not for the people still living here. So if you expect to have healthcare, public services, infrastructure in usable condition, food, and/or any other elements of living in modern society when you are retired, don't bash people who have kids! Or, move to rural towns where the collapse is already happening.

"Already, the demographic shift is affecting where students attend school, how long residents have to wait for an ambulance and whether they can quickly see a doctor. In some cases, local governments themselves are on the verge of collapse as they struggle to fill open jobs and leadership positions."
