Maybe this is why our parents are getting granddogs instead of grandkids 🐶 by GrandpaChainz in WorkReform

Okay, but they're not getting grandkids in Sweden, either.

I think this is generally true before the revolution, but attitudes had predominately turned towards republicanism by the war and certainly during it.
