That's where we're coming from.

Survey and polling data indicates that millennials and Gen Zers are increasingly interested in living child-free.

And they've shared a variety of reasons for that.

They are concerned about the cost, the time, the effort required to be a good parent.

Honestly, it takes a lot of time, effort, and money to be like an okay parent.

So being a good parent is like even more intense.

And a lot of them just didn't have that desire, didn't have the desire to do that.

Regardless of why,

They don't want to be parents.

Their disinterest in parenting has a lot of people in a panic.

Why do you think this trend is causing such a stir?

Sarah, we'll start with you.

Well, a lot of it comes down to economics.

So we're like heading to a population decline.

Correct.

What does that really mean?

What's sort of under that culturally, that panic that people don't want to have children?

Yes, I've seen, at least in the United States, there are a sizable chunk of, there is a loud minority of people who are very concerned about replacement, the great replacement theory, the idea that there are more non-white people being born

than white people.

And that's a bad thing.
