That is demonstrably false though. Richer countries have WAY fewer kids than poorer ones, and even in developed countries, richer households have fewer kids than poorer ones.

It's a choice, just own yours.

Just because the country is rich, doesn't mean the masses living there are.

Why did you willingly ignore the part where even households with more money have less kids?

You people are insufferably ignorant, either post some data if you want to further this discussion or stfu.

Why are you even mentioning data when it takes one second to realize: kids are very expensive, and people don’t have money?

Because data is concrete and verifiable whereas your "vibes" are not. Here's a whole ass Wikipedia page dedicated to this very well known worldwide phenomenon.

Cool man, good luck with the data for a blanket explanation across all of society. I’ll keep using my eyes and common sense if you wanna call that “vibes”
