I’m not saying that your concerns about your quality of life are invalid or that they aren’t the reason you personally don’t want children, but they don’t explain this general phenomenon.
China? Country with oneof the lowest birth rates for a developed economy?

Today, the average Indian woman is expected to have 2.0 children in her lifetime, a fertility rate that is higher than China’s (1.2) or the United States’ (1.6),
Syria that has been a global battle ground without functioning healthcare system?
I doubt any body deciding much about anything about family planning and they sure as fuck ain’t worried about retirement.

Why the fuck would China or India need to meet replacement rates? They’re the most overpopulated places on Earth. This is called progress.
