America's birthrate has declined, sparking interest in pronatalist policies from the White House and beyond. Will these proposals address the root causes?
President Donald Trump and his administration are considering various measures to combat the falling birthrate in the country. Ideas include financial incentives and educational programs, but critics argue they miss the mark.
While some support the proposed policies, others believe that issues like high living costs and lack of support for parents are the real barriers to having children in the US.
Experts suggest that economic uncertainty, rising housing prices, and changing cultural norms are contributing to the declining birthrate. Addressing these issues may be crucial in encouraging more people to start families.
As the debate continues, it remains to be seen whether pronatalist policies will have a significant impact on birthrates in the US.
