It’s almost as if having a baby in your twenties when your rent is 60% of your income seems quite impractically expensive.

What happened at the end of the 1960s (which progressed until mid 1970s) for there to be a considerable increase in the 20-29 bracket and a decrease in the 30-39?

10-19? Way to bunch the reasonable with the extremely disturbing.

That just means COVID-era effects are yet to be seen. I would assume most of those kids born by women in their 30s come from relationships established before 2020.
Fertility rate is about to experience a massive drop soon since after 2020 nobody is dating anymore.

What’s the age of the father’s? Why is it always only about the mother’s age or women having or not having enough babies? It takes two people to make a baby.

That’s what happens house prices become a bigger and bigger multiplication of our yearly income. Oh well, at least banks make a lot of money from our unfathomably high mortgages so all is good.

It is too expensive, too unstable, bad for career, stable relationships are exceedingly hard to establish etc. And all that while people get older and everything increases in cost.
Something is gonna give, but I don’t expect it to be the super rich and the corporations.

The slight downward trend of 10-19 is nice to see

So? I feel like that’s the norm in most, if not all, developed nations these days.

I literally know 0 couples under 30 with kids. I am in this age group so I know quite a few people in the same age group. Youngest couple I know with a baby, the mother was 33.
I’m guessing the ages are lower in the rural areas.

>5% 40-49 😱 Not long ago the majority of ladies were becoming grandmas at such an age.

Not suprising, people aint gonna have kids until they have a stable roof over their head, and since it takes like 6-10 years of working to actually own that roof, ofc people are not gonna have kids under 30

Glad to see the 10-19 category dropping. About 25 years ago I visited England from Canada and the number of teenage mothers with an infant on the back of a bicycle was quite surprising.

I’m a women in that age range (no kids yet) and have one single female friend who had a baby below 30.
It’s not just money and the right partner. It’s also a world becoming more and more misogynistic and conservative. It’s a form of protest.

I find it interesting that 40s bracket has higher number than teen bracket

There should be some incentives.

It’s better for kids having parents with stable income. Then they can invest more into good food and education. You know, basic stuff.

Does anyone have stats on whether the “life-time number of children had” has actually changed that much over the past decades? Or are the gaps between generations just getting longer..?

Can we appreciate that the percentage of teen moms has significantly gone down? I love it.
