I put hope in women having greater control over their bodies / reproduction.
Not all, but a lot more women would choose to have less babies, if they actually had more power to determine the way that goes.
As women become more educated and have greater employment chances themselves. As women are given increased opportunity to pursue their lives goals in teh arts and in sports and in socialisation...
And in this way the birth rate will fall...
And with less babies / infants / children and so on...
We will learn to take better care of the kids we've got.
And they will be less likely to grow up desiring things that seriously harm others.
I think that's the way of it.
Less people...
Taking better care of teh people we've got.
Humans lives are too cheap at the moment. Next to no investment in them... Can't really expect them to grow up to contribute back positively when not much was positively invested in them.
Or their lives were over-controlled by others living vicariously...
I don't know.
I keep hoping things will get better.
But things don't seem to be getting better, at all. I dare say, things are getting worse.
For more of us.
For a greater proportion of us.
Maybe I'm misguided?
I really don't think so.
