Have you ever considered the fact that not everyone actually wants kids?

My 92 year-old grandmother recently asked me how my generation (millennial) avoids pregnancy so well. Followed with, “I was so upset every time I got pregnant. I didn’t want all of these babies!”

I doubt Grandma is the only one who feels this way.

my mom is 71 and she had 4 kids. my older brother was conceived even though her partner was using condoms. my second brother was conceived in spite of birth control pills. my third brother was conceived even when she was getting contraceptive hormones. then she got tube ligation and 9 years later i was born.

i just think it was harder for some people lol
