This is bizarre to the point of mental illness. Get help.
Clearly people don't want to party or have fun if given the chance. Hence why given time off of work, the vast majority spend it doing other kinds of work, not traveling, recreating, resting and vegetating. No, the correct default condition is that they want to focus their energies on child-bearing and child-rearing and the labor, economic cost and physical hardship involved! Clearly we can see this in how people choose to behave!
This is actually to a certain extent true.When I was young, I spent my summer vacations between school years when i could afford it taking a couple of college courses to keep current. Eventually, I ran the summer camp program at my school and had no shortage of teachers wanting to sign up for a week or two (I ran it with week-long morning or afternoon mini-courses for campers to choose among). Of course, people want a couple weeks off to vacation, but lots of them want to do other work.
Is this possibly related to the chances of hooking up with other camp instructors?
I've got a plan. Let's open a brewery/bakery. You do the beer, I'll bake the bread and goodies. That'll keep you busy, and it's a solid business idea.
this is my new favorite interaction on this website. martino you couldve said literally anything else like "are you sure they didnt just want overtime pay" or whatever whyd you have to go with that lmao
I think I misinterpreted him. I thought he was talking about summer camp type camp, not in school day-camp. In that case, like you said, "Overtime Pay". Point still stands: If there was this massive desire to raise kids in 20-somethings, we'd see it in popular culture and in the free market. We don't. People need to get a clue and admit that partying is more fun than raising kids and understand that this is why birthrates are low. Until they acknowledge that and instead focus on "paid leave" or whatever, they won't be able to solve the problem because they don't want to admit what the problem is.
You are really obsessed with partying. It's troubling! I would say young women are more focused on their careers rather than the primal need to be out partying at every opportunity. Just like your thinking that the majority of young people are all on Tinder looking to hook up. Which wasn't true, again.
You know, I read a thing somewhere that a certain country in Europe (might be Sweden? Too lazy to look it up again) made it illegal to charge tuition fees for school. This basically made it impossible for private schools to operate, so the super rich kids ended up attending the same public schools as the poor. Rich parents pump a ton of money into those schools to ensure their babehs are still getting the best opportunities possible, and all other students benefit by extension because what's good for schools is good for all students that attend those schools.I'd imagine that a similar setup would probably ease a lot of pressure off of many parents, and would probably help boost the birthrate in countries like Korea. Not that I see something like this ever, EVER happening here, lol, but that's one option.
My god dmart you love just taking the opposite position to make 400 pages of nonsense.The average age in oecd countries for first birth is like 30. I believe Korea is on the high end at the whooping age of 31, which means like half of those women gave birth in their 20s. I'm sure they had that club outfit ready to go to the club right after giving birth.
Again, we have to look at what people spend their recreational time on and what draws interest. The counter claim would be that young people ARE NOT interested in such things, which is patently absurd. Every indication based on both output of young people and what they consume suggests a lifestyle orientated around leisure, not familial responsibility. This is the problem- Rather than admit a hard and uncomfortable truth, some people would prefer a comfortable lie because the truth is a "downer" and makes people "bad" or whatever. And then you get absurd arguments like these which fly in the face of facts. Yes young people are worried about jobs and there is that young person you know down the street who wants a family, but that misses the forest for the trees. No, it's not the evil businessmen denying paid leave. No it's not the Republicans failing to pass child care laws. It's the fact that the average young person 18-30 has little interest in starting to family, many into age 35 and that leaves about 5-10 years of reliable fertility to have a kid. That and the average young person would rather spend their time and money on themselves than on some attached burden.
Your argument, for the most part, is pure projection based on how you've decided to live your life.
No, that's not what it means.If 8 women are giving birth at 30, 1 at 20 and 1 at 40, the average age is 30. Half ARE NOT giving birth in their 20s. Now those aren't the numbers, but the majority are giving birth post-30.
In accordance with this marriage trend, the age of birth of the first child also increased. According to statistics for 2018, the age of birth of the first child was 31.9 years, the second child – 33.6 years, the third child – 35.1 years.
The fertility rate for mothers aged 30 to 34 recorded the highest figure of 100.8.
