    Some people find themselves in places where they lack the choice to limit themselves to two children when an accident happens. Not everyone has the resources to travel to a place where they would be able to make a choice.

    What, are you using the word places as a metaphor or literally, cause I've never heard of a location where you have to have more kids than you can afford, other than maybe villages where kids are seen as free labor

      Currently, in the US there are States were you can get an abortion and States were you cant. So, if you have an unplanned pregnancy you are kind of fucked.

          why would I want to bring somebody into this world. they'd only have to fight for basic things like "let's be nice to each other" and "maybe we should pool our money to spend it on big things that benefit us all"

          fuck that. I'll live my little servile life as a cog in the machine as best I can, and then I'll die. and the dumb fucks who won't stop breeding while they try to make things worse for their children will repopulate the earth

                  Not disagreeing with your point, but women can have children until menopause. It gets riskier and harder but not as much as most people commonly believe. "Biological clock" is a largely made up concept.

                      Pretty sure when people use that term they're not thinking "I can usually have a baby at 55".

                                    The math has changed.

                                    100 years ago, you'd get kids so you can afford eggs.

                                      The biological clock exists, and it is real. But it ends at a time where no reasonable person should seriously consider having a first child.

                                      For most women menopause starts around 45 and the last period happens around 49-55. That's the hard limit.

                                      Between 30-45 having kids is most often possible, though it's getting more difficult and the chance for things like trisomy 21 is increasing exponentially with increasing age.

                                        If they are following the usual timeline, that's another 4 years until a world war, and then another 6 years until someone drops a bomb and ends everything.
