Because we are so busy trying to untangle the straps, who has time for procreating?

Don't forget butt sex is on the rise.

Great. Expecting the ones on Netflix and NFL.

Mechanistic pathway hypothesis: every time I have to move a kid car seat with all those straps and little buckles under the car seat cushions, I swear I’m never having any more kids. Didn’t read the article.

🙄

Not weighing on the importance of all the measures, parenting has become exponentially harder compared to previous generations and People don't like hard work.

'yet to be peer reviewed'. 'Correlation'.

Should be “A study titled...” People are entitled, documents etc are titled.

Aisy nature na tu khapay...........

In sha'a ALLAH...................

some ridiculous!

Good news!

Very interesting

I got to call BS on this one.

That's okay if it does. It might be that people are cherishing the children they have more. Let's make the world a better place for them. =

Perhaps, more likely facts such as wages that didn't keep up with inflation/cost of living, lack of job security, lack of decent maternity/paternity leave, ... Even though more & me buy SUVs, which can accommodate car seats.

The only solution is to tell the 3rd kid he has to sit in the trunk - Because most Americans can’t afford a better car with their crushing AMERICAN DEBT burden ! Blame subsidized CORPORATE America and their powerful politics - they keep wages LOW and politicians in their pockets

Could also be the crushing educational debt, the lack of paid leave, the cost of healthcare, and the cost of childcare in the US. As a millennial parent fitting 3 car seats across is the LEAST of my worries 🤔

C’mon - seriously, American cars are the biggest, they drive around in their huge pickups or SUVs ... in those 3 kids seats can be fixed perfectly in the back (tried, tested) - there must be a different reason, please

GREAT news. Too many people already.

And increased puppies and kitties?!

Haha good. The world is overpopulated.

Why would anyone choose to have three kids? Makes me seriously ill to think about having another child.

good luck
