The following report is from Insider:
Being a parent is losing its appeal.
So finds a new study by the Pew Research Center that surveyed over 3,800 Americans ages 18 to 49. Among non-parents in this cohort, 44% said it’s not too likely or not likely at all they’ll have kids someday. That’s up by 7 percentage points from the 37% of childless adults who said the same in 2018.
There is no sole driving force behind the uptick in Americans eschewing childbearing, according to Pew. As seen in the chart below, more than half of this group just doesn’t want kids. The remaining 43% cited various factors, with medical reasons and financial reasons as the top two.
Among adults surveyed who are already parents, nearly three-quarters say they’re unlikely to have more kids, which Pew says is “virtually unchanged” since 2018. Similar to their childless counterparts, most said they just don’t want more kids. The rest largely cited age and medical reasons as their top babymaking deterrents, followed by financial reasons.
Anna Brown, research associate at Pew Research Center and author of the report, told Insider that medical reasons include infertility or an illness, while financial reasons entail things like childcare costs or job loss, which millions of Americans had experienced during the pandemic.
Money has long been a reason why many millennials, who have long been facing an affordability crisis, have put off having kids or not having them at all. Recessions — like the financial crisis and coronavirus downturn the generation has experienced back-to-back — typically have the strongest economic influence on birth and fertility rates.
That’s not to mention the high price tag of having a child. National childcare costs average between $9,000 and $9,600 annually, per advocacy organization Child Care Aware. That’s unaffordable for 63% of full-time working parents in the US.
But it’s not just the literal cost of raising a child that has increased. So, too, has the opportunity cost, and it explains a lot about the growing share of Americans who just don’t desire to have kids.
Women Are Seeking Other Paths In Life
Pew’s study follows the baby bust news that has marked much of 2021. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed earlier this year that the US birth rate had fallen by 4% from 2019 to 2020, the sharpest single-year decline in nearly 50 years and the lowest number of births since 1979.
Brown said it’s too soon to tell how Pew’s recent findings will impact the overall birth rate. But the number of American births has been declining for six years as millennial women have been waiting to have babies until a later age.
We’ve also kind of seen this expectation of having children falling over the last few years, but we can’t really predict how it will change in the future.
We already know that women are having children a lot later in life. So we may be seeing more women toward the end of their childbearing years having kids.
That’s normal if you look at worldwide trends. There’s been a broader shift among high-income countries and some middle-income countries for women to postpone having kids until later ages, Christine Percheski, associate professor of sociology at Northwestern University, previously told Insider. The US, she said, was a little slower to see that increase. Seeing it now is a sign of economic progress.
It’s about women having access to education and employment opportunities. It’s about the rise in individualism. It’s about the rise in women’s autonomy and a change in values.
As Gina Tomaine wrote for Philly Mag, millennials like to be unencumbered and their economic experiences have made them question what makes a successful, meaningful life.
Maybe a full, rich life is one that’s overflowing with creativity, travel, exploration — all stuff that kids make more difficult.

[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.1 Timothy 4:1-3
There are many factors as to why birthrates are shrinking, but this report sums it up: people are broke, and women don’t want to be women. This is why marriages continually descend lower and lower annually, more marriages fail within a year than ever before leading to a divorce; and cohabitation, whoremongering, bed-hopping, sodomy, orgies, continue to skyrocket. Baseball used to be the great American pass time: now it’s pornography in a dark room when people are not on social media or playing video games.

[3] But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. [4] Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head. [5] But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. [6] For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.1 Corinthians 11:3-6
[9] In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; [10] But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. [11] Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. [12] But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. [13] For Adam was first formed, then Eve. [14] And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. [15] Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.1 Timothy 2:9-15
In order for Satan to destroy the home, he does not go after the child or the man, he attacks the woman. Here in America the problems began to get started post-Civil War, when a double-whammy occurred: hundreds of thousands of men died, leaving behind many widows and a generation of many children without their fathers, and many more fathers who suffered from PTSD, drunkenness, gambling, revellings, etc. The point is, Satan was able to sneak in and start working on the woman. And here we are now.
It is also important to note that the American foods and drinks are highly toxic, and have extreme estrogenic properties – messing up both male and female’s hormones, causing effeminacy and transvestites, via the water supply, packaging, gmo’s, and so on. Moreover, a vegetarian/vegan diet WILL cause infertility over time (which falls right in line with 1 Timothy 4).

Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

I’ve seen many people say “F that” when asked if they wanted to have children later on down the road. That’s one of the things that has always really bothered me about people this day in age, even before I got saved. Nobody wants the best things in life anymore, it’s like you said “now it’s pornography in a dark room when people are not on social media or playing video games”. This is what “modern man” has become, and it’s quite shameful.
Except the LORD build the house, They labour in vain that build it: Except the LORD keep the city, The watchman waketh but in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: For so he giveth his beloved sleep. Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: And the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; So are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: They shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
Psalm 127:1-5 KJV
I remember Dr. Ruckman in one of his old sermons on the King James Bible, he said something to the effect of “I’m suspicious of a man who doesn’t like pure things”, then he listed things like the KJV, puppies, BABIES, etc.
Couldn’t agree more with him. Any man who doesn’t like pure things is flat-out morally and spiritually depraved.
You left out the fact that vaccines contain aborted fetal tissue/dna and I don’t see how that couldn’t screw with a living body. It’s no wonder a lot of children don’t know what they are or are confused. Foreign dna on day of birth, then keep pumping it in. If it explains food allergies, it can certainly explain the explosion of gay, trans, what have you.
Great point.

I’d been thinking for a while, why would they have fetal bovine/ bovine/calf serum albumin, chicken egg albumin, human serum albumin, etc in the shots?. I was guessing at least with all the cow proteins they have in there and knowing their agenda to try and get us off meat, that perhaps the allergies were stemming from the vaccines, and thats why they were putting it in there. How weird is it for a dog or a cat, etc to be allergic to meat?!?! That isn’t normal whatsoever, so why should it be for a person?! Perhaps putting the human serum albumin in the shots is intended to make our immune system attack/cause problems with our own eggs???
“Food allergies are an over-response of the immune system to a food protein. Nearly all food your dog eats contains protein and these proteins can all trigger food allergies. THE MOST COMMON PROTEINS THAT CAUSE ALLERGY SYMPTOMS IN DOGS ARE BEEF, DAIRY, AND CHICKEN. Some plant based proteins like corn, wheat and soy can also be triggers…
What Happens When Food Proteins Are Injected?
When food proteins are injected directly into the bloodstream via vaccination, they can cause a type 1 hypersensitivity reaction against the new allergen. That creates a response in a type of immune cell called a TH2 lymphocyte … which belongs to a subset of T cells that produce a cytokine called interleukin-4 (IL-4).
These TH2 cells interact with other lymphocytes called B cells, whose job is to produce antibodies. Coupled with signals provided by IL-4, this interaction stimulates the B cell to begin production of a large amount of a type of antibody specific to food proteins, known as IgE.
Secreted IgE circulates in the blood and binds to an IgE-specific receptor on the surface of other kinds of immune cells called mast cells and basophils, which are both involved in the acute inflammatory response. The IgE-coated cells are then sensitized to the allergen (food proteins).
When Your Dog Eats The Same Protein …
If your vaccinated dog now eats these foods, the food proteins bind to the IgE held on the surface of the mast cells or basophils. Fc receptors are cell surface molecules that recognize the Fc portion of Ig molecules and antibodies. Cross-linking of the IgE and Fc receptors occurs when more than one IgE-receptor complex interacts with the same food allergenic molecule … and activates the sensitized cell.
Activated mast cells and basophils undergo a process called degranulation. This means they release histamine and other inflammatory chemical mediators (cytokines, interleukins, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins) from their granules into the surrounding tissue causing several systemic responses, such as vasodilation, mucus secretion, nerve stimulation and smooth muscle contraction.
This is what causes food allergy symptoms like itchiness and inflamed ears.
Depending on your individual dog, the food allergen and how it’s introduced, your dog’s symptoms can be system-wide (anaphylaxis) … localized to a particular body system like the skin.
So, to summarize, your dog has an allergic reaction to the food proteins that were present in the vaccine. But why are food proteins in vaccines in the first place?
RELATED: How vaccines cause skin disease by harming your dog’s immune system …
The Role Of Vaccines
Most viruses (like distemper and parvovirus) need to be first grown and harvested to make the vaccine. This process begins with a small amount of virus, which needs to be grown in cells. Various types of cells can be used, including chicken embryos, calf serum, or other cell lines that reproduce quickly and repeatedly.
Once the antigen is grown, vaccine manufacturers try to isolate it from the cells. But proteins and other food particles can still be present in the vaccine.
Then an adjuvant to stimulate an exaggerated immune response may be added, along with stabilizers or preservatives. Many vaccine adjuvants are made from vegetable oils, such as soybean, corn and peanut … so these plant-based oils can also cause food allergies. (It’s no wonder so many children have peanut allergies.)”

And here’s the scientist…
“Nobel Laureate Charles Richet demonstrated over a hundred years ago that injecting a protein into animals or humans causes immune system sensitization to that protein. Subsequent exposure to the protein can result in allergic reactions or anaphylaxis. This fact has since been demonstrated over and over again in humans and animal models. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) confirmed that food proteins in vaccines cause food allergy, in its 2011 report on vaccine adverse events. The IOM’s confirmation is the latest and most authoritative since Dr. Richet’s discovery. Many vaccines and injections contain food proteins.”
