The political landscape filled with debate on the voting rights of women who chose not to have children attacked by Trump's VP candidate Vance has created a ****storm.
Some women chose not to have children because they have not found a suitable partner. If she is well educated she may want a mate of equal or better education. If she choses to have children she has the issue of stopping work, affecting her career advancement, medical costs, keeping up with student loan payments.
Some women cannot have children because of her husband's sperm count, her own reproductive problems. IVF is expensive and banned in some states.
She may chose not to have children because of unsuitable childcare available. She may not want children because of possible divorces and a husband delinquent in his support payments.
The possibility of getting a home suitable for the raising children is also an issue. Many houses don't have a backyard where one can have a trampoline or swing. If you are both working which may be an economic necessity who looks after the children after school? Not everyone has grandparents nearby to do the job and they might by the time one decides to have a family be in a nursing home.
The old ritual of the family dinner not so much now. Getting children bathed, fed, clothes, washing. Children who are involved in sports activity like to have parents around.
Then you have nuns who for spiritual reasons chose the celibates' life.
There was a talk by Apostle Oaks claiming that too many LDS youth were involved in dating and not trying to find a suitable partner. Women use to have time to meet in a church ladies guild, visit the sick, etc. The meeting use to be held during a day in the week. Now it is in the evening because of a woman's work commitments. How does the wife of a Bishop deal with the extra load of child rearing as a result of his absence? Church attendance by men is declining. https://ifstudies.org/blog/sex-ratios-i ... n-churches.
