The grass can actually be greener on the other.
According to a recent study, more and more Americans are choosing what many call a quiet and quiet childless life.
A team of researchers from Michigan State University found that the number of people in the US in order to choose to have no children has doubled within the last two decades.
Preliminary research has hinted that many Americans are choosing a childless life-anyway, “these new results confirm that this is part of a nationwide tendency that is unfolding for over 20 years,” said Zachary Neal professor of psychology and co-author of the study.
According to team findings, the percentage of non -facts who do not want to bring children to this world increased from 14% in 2002 to 29% in 2023.
“During the same period, the percentage of non -Plants planning to have children in the future fell from 79% to 59%,” said Jennifer Watling Neal, a professor at the MSU Department of Psychology and co -author of the study.
The research did not show the specific reasons why Americans do not want children – but based on things like the state of the world, the vague economy and the desire for a life of freedom – there are probably a number of reasons why adults do not want to create.
And people are not shy when it comes to posting on social media about their decision to live this lifestyle.
Content maker Danni Duncan has several videos on her Tiktok site on the topic.
In a video entitled, “Just a Children’s Morning,” Many people in the comments or agreed with her lifestyle or envied her.
“Calm … peace … Ugh I love this. Thank you for this is so affirmative. Child for life,” one person wrote.
“Like someone in the trenches with a little boy, I have to say that I love to live in particular through this type of content. Your mornings look so peaceful,” shared a commentator.
“Look at all the lovely things that can be at waist height because there is no need to worry about the hands of adhesive jam,” a parent said.
While Duncan received positive reactions – for the most part – for her decision not to have children, others faced reactions to her.
A New Yorker named Natalie faced great criticism online as people called it “selfish” to avoid keeping children.
“I hear the question,“ Who will take care of you when you are older? “Many.
“You don’t have to have children just to make sure someone will take care of you later in life, this is a big burden to settle on them. Important make decisions based on what is best for your life, not for fear of the future,” the millennium said in the interview.
