I have several nieces/nephews that are in their mid 20's to low 30's and none have had children and none have even mentioned wanting to start a family.

It seems like a really complicated issue, but it's really not. It's mostly about narcissism. I know that seems harsh, but at its core, that's what it's about.

Generally, we've become more interested in an anchor-free lifestyle. There are other legitimate reasons of course, but that's the biggest, IMO. We see children as a burden and no longer a blessing.
