With more women joining the workforce, an increasing number feel that having children may not align with their personal happiness.

This a very disgusting euphemism. How is it in Palestine actually? Does it also not align with the happiness of people there, if you are a witnessing genocide?

Reminds me of my economics teacher. First, there’s a perceived shortage of something. And if you have enough money, you can satisfy that perceived shortage. Just like the perceived shortage of insulin, medication, or food. If you’re malnourished and hungry, that’s also perceived. Ever since, I’ve wondered if death is the perceived shortage of life. But unfortunately, the market can’t satisfy that particular shortage.
