I dunno, not everyone's cut out to be a parent
no doubt it's amazingly rewarding for people who want to do it, all I'm saying is not everyone does
I've never had even a flicker of desire to procreate. Peeps told me I'd grow into it as I got older, things would change if I ever fell in love, blah blah blah, but both those things happened and my decision remains the same.
it's hard to quanitfy the global number of people who stay unmarried/childless cuz those are two diff sets of statistics and each vary based upon gender and nationality. In general for women, the higher the level of education she has, the fewer (to none) children she'll have.
other factors that statistically correlate with women having fewer to no children are urbanity, higher income and lack of religious belief
I like hearing parents say they couldn't imagine things any other way, though. No kid should grow up with a parent who regrets taking on that role
