    Well, some people say that modern women's reluctance to have children reflects that modern women pay more and more attention to their own social attributes and don't want to be confined to a small family!

    Is this actually the case?

    In fact, it is not that women are becoming more and more reluctant to have children, but compared with women in developed countries, their fertility rates are indeed relatively low, because women pay more attention to career and personal space, so the consequence is that the phenomenon of social aging is becoming more and more serious!

    But. Are these women's responsibilities?

    No! Not at all.

    The actual situation is not as complicated as you think, in fact, it is very simple: the social responsibility of women is getting heavier and heavier, resulting in women having no conditions to have children!

    Hehe! Look at the people around us, who are not working hard for real life, for food, house and all kinds of life necessities, if you want to enjoy a little better, then you have to work harder, both men and women!

    Under these conditions, who still has the heart to have children!

    So now having children has become the preserve of the rich!

    Because having a child conflicts with the interests of highly educated women themselves. Career, health, and appearance, these three important things will have a negative impact on having children.

    Health and appearance, the impact on all people is not much different, so it is not considered for the time being. It cannot be denied that the higher the education, the higher the income, and most of the work is based on the work of going to work on time, of course, the greater the impact on their career.

    Suppose that within the family, giving birth to a child is rewarded, then being in society, having a child is punished. When the reward is much lower than the punishment, then not having children is a rational choice, and the higher the education, the more rational it is.

    Another point is that society is very concerned about money. Men don't want to get married, and women don't want to have children. Anxiety and insecurity can cause people to give up long-term investments and focus more on short-term gains.

    The higher the horizon, the more knowledgeable women have, and they want to pursue a better standard of living, and the income is difficult to ensure that having children will not affect the standard of living.

    For most people, having children has become a negative asset, and the concept of raising children to prevent old age is no longer popular.

    To sum up, workers in the workplace who have high education and are not in good family conditions do not want to have children, or will postpone having children.

    The awakening of modern women's self-consciousness, the more educated women will be. In addition, now the undergraduate degree in social studies is not considered a high degree, and under normal circumstances, they are 22 years old when they graduate, and then they are basically over 28 years old when they go to graduate school. It is also an objective reality that most of the people who have been working for a few years have stabilized and missed the best age for childbearing.

    Any phenomenon cannot be a unilateral cause, and it must be the best choice for itself under the action of comprehensive synergy. A lot of what we see is the appearance of things.

    To be precise, the more educated people are, the more reluctant they are to have children, not just women.

    People with high education have a considerable degree of requirements for their quality of life, and they know very well how much impact they will have on their lives once they have children.

    People with low educational qualifications have low requirements for their quality of life, and they are more inclined to instinct when giving birth, and they are not very clear about what they will pay.

    For example, a father with a low education gets up early every day to make money by transporting goods and working hard to squeeze himself, and finally falls ill and is destitute, and a family collapses. And all this is because he has a second child, and the expenses of supporting two children make him unable to rest for a moment.

    And his education is low, so he is not thoughtful, and before giving birth to a second child, he failed to fully estimate his ability to bear.

    Parents with high education will not wait until the second child is born before they begin to worry about the lack of money, they have done a full assessment before doing a thing, and from the beginning, they will not have a second child, or even a direct dink, not a single child.

    To sum up: people with low educational qualifications don't know that they can't afford to give birth because they don't think about it;

    Highly educated people, because they are thoughtful, know that they can't afford to give birth;

    And judging from the results, the higher the education, the less likely they are to have children.

    For women, having a baby can create a gap of several years at work. This is absolutely unavoidable. Unless the child is born and throws it away.

    A few years of work gap is enough to make people forget what to do in a familiar job, and it is almost impossible to return to the previous state. Women with higher education care more about work and independence, but having children can make both of them go away.

    Therefore, highly educated women are more reluctant to have children.

    The reasons are manifold:

    The higher the education, the higher the opportunity cost for a woman to have a child. Suppose you graduate at the age of 25, 25 and 35 years old is the most important period for your career, having a child, taking care of a child requires a lot of time and energy, which has a great adverse effect on your career.

    The marriage rate is low, and the marriage is late. Ditto, late graduation, late entry into society, low marriage rate, and late, also affect the birth of children.

    Rationally realize that giving birth to children suffers. Having a child is a loss for an individual, and the cost of having a child is far greater than the benefit. Including the time, energy, money, and house that are paid.

    1 or 2 people can live in a one-room house, and a 3-room house is generally needed to give birth to a child. In the current situation of high housing prices in large cities, the cost of housing is high or even out of reach.

    There is no need to give birth, you can support yourself. You don't need to rely on children to support your old age, and you don't need to have children to maintain a relationship with a man.

    Social pressures disappear. Having a child is such a difficult thing, and the individual's rational choice is not to have children, especially after the invention of the contraceptive pill, after sex and fertility are completely separated. So there is social pressure to have children, and now there is almost no social pressure.

    Now whoever dares to say "give birth" will immediately become a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouts and beats it. There are many highly educated women in big cities, and the influence of traditional social circles is almost zero.

    I think it's not just highly educated women who don't want to have children, although I'm not 985 211, I personally think that my current situation is already very good, my husband, in-laws are very good to me, and the two babies are also great, but I have to admit that because of the baby, it has affected my work, and my life can be said to be an all-round impact, and the job is unstable, of course, there are also my personal reasons, but I have to say that during the interview, because of the child, the child is relatively small, this matter has been rejected many times, not to mention life, go to work, take care of the baby after work, of course, my husband will also help But it's still very tiring The time that belongs to me is basically only after the child sleeps Even the party with friends is very reduced Not to mention the figure Pregnancy Breast milk The changes brought about after staying up late cannot be ignored At present, I am forcing myself to lose fat and shape The above is just a part of the many results Many friends around me feel difficult just looking at or thinking about it Not to mention that I have to experience it myself I am all good There is no contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Contradiction in children's education There are many families without children before the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is very bad Not to mention after having children To put it simply, after having children, your quality of life may decline in all aspects, so more and more people are reluctant to have children.

Note that it can only be said to be a group analysis, and it is not valid to say that it is only for one or two individuals.

    Nowadays, more and more girls have a higher pursuit of their studies, not only to become college students, but even to become the mainstay of graduate students. In addition, there are many female students who will choose to take the exam and become a "frightening" female doctor in society. Although they have become giants academically, they are not recognized in real life!

    Rather than looking for a lover, they love themselves more. Nowadays, more and more girls will become unmarried, in addition to the influence of their parents' marriage, education has also become an important influencing factor, the higher the education of girls will become unmarried.

    They will see marriage and childbirth as a secular cage, a very cumbersome matter, why should they repeat the same mistakes as thousands of women, not so much betting their happiness on others, but in their own hands.

    Even if they are eager to fall in love and find a vital person, then they will choose to get married at best, and have children, which is a waste of time and damage to intelligence, should be avoided!

    The phenomenon of "mean reversion" occurs in the child's genetics. We can often see cases of highly educated parents spitting out their own scumbag children on the Internet, obviously parents with the highest IQ, why do they cultivate smart and clever children who don't show off their limbs? It's not even as good as other ordinary parents!

    This is because when genes are inherited, there is a phenomenon called "mean reversion". It is that the child's genetics not only do not inherit the advantages of the parents, but choose the shortcomings of the parents, so the situation is like a big joke between the genes and the parents, but it is precisely with this phenomenon that all children can have a fair growth environment. Then, highly educated girls will also worry about this, if they give birth to a child that disappoints them, why can't they avoid it as much as possible?

    Marriage is restricted everywhere, and there is no chance of having children. When it comes to highly educated girls, many people will unconsciously have the illusion that they are picky. Because they are so good, even if they find an ordinary person, they will not be blessed!

    Therefore, many boys will avoid it.

    But in fact, the dilemma encountered by highly educated girls is the moral kidnapping of society, others think that they should be like this, but they themselves are tormented because they cannot escape.

    And it makes it more difficult for them to get married, the more they can't find it, the more anxious they are, the more anxious they are, the more they can't find it, the vicious circle is really speechless. In this way, getting married has become a problem, let alone having children, there is no chance at all!

    Because the higher the girl's education, the more independent her mind is, she doesn't recognize the trembling friend as a girl must have a child to be complete, because the hole for her to scatter the hole can make a lot of money by herself, and there is no need to have children to sustenance her spirit, in addition, a person is very happy to live, if there are children, there are many problems to worry about.

    This is because highly educated girls feel that if they have children, they will have an impact on their work, and they will not be able to give their children a better material life.

    From my own point of view, I am a girl, I am reading, I can't even read something in the world, how do I educate my children, my offspring? The future is full of uncertainties, and I don't want to have a husband and children at home, because I feel that I am free, I can go out and play freely, I can study freely, and no one will hinder me.

    To love your neighbor as yourself, you must first learn to love yourself. No matter how long you shorten it, it won't improve, because you don't ask women's opinions, you don't ask women who have given birth to children and how painful it is, is it really easy to have children?

    Women are not born to carry on their ancestry, women can have their own dreams to pursue, she can go as she goes, she is not blindly doing never-ending housework at home, taking her children to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. She should stand on the podium with infinite scenery, stand on the workplace full of dreams, and she should do what she loves vigorously. 1. There is discrimination against women with low education level and mu, believing that women with lower education level are more likely to be born.

    The article uses statistics that "among women with higher education, the majority of them have one child, close to 70%; Those with a high degree of Chinese have the same proportion of first and second children, both around 47%; Those with primary school or below and junior Chinese level are the majority of those who have two or more children, accounting for and respectively. Among women who do not have children, more than half are highly educated. It can be seen that with the increase of women's education level, it will lead to fewer or no children.

    It was later concluded that women with a higher level of education tended to have fewer children. Second, there is the problem of a magnifying glass that generalizes in a partial way. The article said that "in 2020, nearly half of the students in colleges and universities (undergraduate, junior college and graduate) are women", but it did not say what the proportion of these women in the province is of childbearing age, not to mention that these half of women will not all be called to obtain household registration in Jiangsu Province after graduation.

    Using this article as a basis is clearly a conceptual error of substituting parts for the whole.

    Third, it is an indisputable fact that the fertility rate is declining throughout the country, and there are many reasons for this. The article attributed all the reasons for the decline in fertility to female factors, ignored other factors, and put all the blame on women, which is not only a lack of in-depth and detailed analysis, thinking and research on the problem, but also disrespectful to women. The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny.

    There are always discrepancies between theory and reality, and there are even big discrepancies. According to global experience, late marriage and late childbearing, no childbearing, and fewer children are global phenomena that are not unique to China.
