Fertility of Women in the United States

тыц(абельно) для большага раз меру
учение Маркса всесильно, патамаушта оно верно, сообщает демограф Бюро переписей Линдси Монт:
recent research suggests that childbearing is related to women's rates of employment, their educational attainment and their economic well-being
вот отчёт, на основании которого она пришла к такому выводу:
Fertility of Women in the United States: 2012 
The following are some highlights from the report on women and fertility:
  • In June 2012, 75.4 million women in the United States were age 15 to 50, of which roughly 44 million, or 59 percent, were mothers.
  • Of the 75.4 million women, 17 percent had one child, 23 percent had two children, 19 percent had three or more children, and 41 percent had not given birth to any children.
  • Roughly 5 percent of all women age 15 to 50, 4.1 million women, reported giving birth in the 12 months prior to the survey. The highest share of births were to women age 25 to 34 (52.3 percent). Only 2.3 percent of births were to women age 45 to 50.

Other highlights:

  • The average number of children ever born has dropped from more than three children per woman in 1976 to about two children per woman in 2012.
  • More than one in five women who gave birth in the year prior to the survey reported living in someone else's home at the time of the survey. Seventy percent of these women lived in their parents' home.
  • The nation's official poverty rate was 15 percent in 2012, but 48 percent of young women (younger than age 23) who gave birth in the year before the survey lived in households that were below the federal poverty line, and 28 percent were in extreme poverty (below 50 percent of the federal poverty line).
