The “Urge” to be a Mommy is Genetic

The number of children per family is now slightly over 1 per couple in developed countries, such as Europe or the United States. This is not enough to replace the mating couple. Should we adapt standards such as China did on the number of births required? Of course, our democratic history would not permit such a mandate.

Then what are we to do? Will the Caucasian race disappear?

Some are truly worried that today’s culture which fosters less and less children per household may bode ill, or extinction of the Caucasoids, for developed countries.

However, another theory being proposed is that the urge to be a mommy is genetic. Therefore, women who have a lot of children, will breed children who also want to have children; thereby, making extinct the women who worked on their careers, versus building a family.

Fortunately, or perhaps unfortunately, those who are living today will not live to see the ultimate result.
