Somali nowadays tends to marry late and don't have many children as before : RIGHT ?

[Aegon]

Am i the only one who notice that ? i swear every couples i know who married this year are in their late 20ys-early 30's.

And usually the others don't have kids like before, i remember in the early 2000's, every somali couples who was married weir in their early 20's, and they usually had 4-5 childrens, now most of somali families stick to 2 or 3.

What the cause behind that

 

[Testo 21]

Cost of living. Every where is expensive. Man and women both working for they're careers.

What the cause behind that

Men = not being men
Females = indoctrinated by feminism.

Men + women = influenced by the western way of living.

 

[Khaem]

I mean mines got married at the start of the 2000s and had only 3 kids inc. Me

But then again, Djiboutians aren't known for having lots of kids.

They became financially stronger than back than, wealthy families tend to make less children

Don't be curious.

Shes just another failed bitter divestor who blames Somali men for her own incompetence to attract men with any substance .

Ugly from in- & outside.

There are more than plenty Somali women who love their fathers a little more than their mothers. The majority of Somali women have great fathers and can't see their life without their father and want a man like their father and they will get one because these fathers are the majority and will raise good men. These damaged women just project onto the whole community but it's just a echo chamber. Most Somalis don't relate to them and don't know what they're talking about.

 

[Gojo Satoru]

Cost of living has made raising children too expensive. Anyone that's not retarded wouldn't pop out babies they can't afford

 

[Odious Delirium]

too many useless Somali men

@Audrey Hepburn is this what you mean when you say you'll become resentful?

 

[Sophisticate]

Different attitudes regarding family planning than earlier generations.

its every race not just somali and its good. we have way too many people on earth, too much traffic, too many children born in cursed homes, too much resources being used, pollution (although most of it is from corporations). its good birth rates are declining IMO.

 

[johnsepei5]

Having loads of kids back in Africa and have maybe 3 or 4 kids in the west is very popular nowadays

We are no where near too many people on earth or using up the resources.
We produce enough to support a population of 11 billion. It's just we are very wasteful and a massive chunk of things produced goes towards the excessive standard of living in certain nations.
Polution is also a talking point and as you said, this isn't the fault of the common man. Global warming and Polution is 80% corporations. Things like planes, oil, ships ect.
Cars and meat consumption isn't destroying the plannet although it would be better if cities were walkable and public transport an option for all so cars aren't a necessity to many.

Declining birthrates are as bad, if not worse than exploding population.
A large population can bring down it's birth rates go just above replacement level and focus on developing.

A population of old people with a below replacement level birthrates will destroy society for centuries.
The old will have no one to care for them and pay their pensions.
The young will have a horrible standard of living and will end up in a ratio where 3 or 5 working adults will be paying towards the pension of just one elderly.
Wages will be low and stagnant.
Forget trying to reform society, there won't be any surplus of young people to do the revolting and changing. The country will slowly wither away as everyone's life becomes worse and worse. It will be a gray society.
