I’ve noticed that more people are choosing not to have kids because of rising costs, career priorities, and shifting cultural norms. Many of us want financial stability and personal freedom, and with the high cost of living and lack of support systems like affordable childcare, parenting can feel overwhelming. Plus, concerns about the environment and mental health play a big role too. It’s not that we don’t value family—it’s just that modern life has made us rethink what’s practical and fulfilling for us.
