My Family's Birth Rate

Following maternal side:

Great-grandparents: 12/couple: birth rate of 12 per couple

Grandparents: 4.5/couple: birth rate of 4.5 per couple

Parents: 3/couple: birth rate of 3 per couple
                         
Self & siblings: 5 children per 3 couples: birth rate of 1.67 per couple

Children (end of breeding ages): 2 children for 5 couples: = 0.4 children/couple

...and those emigrated to Slovenia! I wonder how they are fairing under the onslaught of muzzies... 
 

Paternal side numbers are not all available. Tentative estimation very poor at those in my generation are approximately 1.17 per couple, lower than our 1.67.

Looks like the my family is about to die out. Considering the guesstamate of 4.5 children per couple in my combined grandparents generation and the 0.4 children per couple in my and my cousins generation, we've dropped by a factor of {11, and a factor of 30 from my great-grandparents day.

Most of my generation and my childrens generation were seriously affected by parents divorce and grandparents divorce. Society is far more accepting of whoring around and there are harsh penalties for men in a divorce despite not being at fault. The following anecdote is typical for virtually all men these days, makes marriage an extremely poor bet:

"As you know, there are certain “givens” in a divorce. The wife is going to get the house, car, kids, savings and retirement accounts, plus child support, dental and medical care, and the dog. In certain states she is eligible for alimony as well.

The husband gets squat. Well, at least in Florida he can get debtor's prison. That's something. His quality of life will diminish somewhat, living in the dismal dump that is all he can afford. At least the roaches are large and numerous enough to provide plenty of protein. The judge can set any amount of the husband's income for child support, etc. with automatic adjustments for inflation. Supreme judicial prejudice is the law of the land. Keep in mind, the ratchet works only one way. It always goes up, never down. What happens if he gets a raise? Yup. Sweet little Ellie Sue can petition the court and presto, she gets a whacking big increase in child support, etc. The State gets some as well. His tax rate reflects the total raise, hence the raise is actually a decrease of income while child support has gone up! Please boss, don't give me another raise or I'll go broke!

What happens if he looses his job? Why, it becomes rather difficult to pay child support. The State will rather rapidly throw one in debtor's prison where he has 6 months to re-consider the wonderfulness of the most beautiful girl under the bleachers and their 6 snot monsters. The State will save one the problem of renewing any licenses that one may need for future employment, driver's license as well. They all get canceled. So when the poor critter gets out, he'll be homeless, his vehicle impoundment charges exceed its value, his household goods including that wonderful dented aluminum pot he got at the flea market he boiled his morning gruel in, have been donated to a worthy charity. The one that has many fleet feet and comes by night. ...and he still owes child support."

I wrote that in an essay concerning a friend and it is soooo universal I'm tempted to copyright it! My father, myself, four good friends, and a number of aquaintances have all been through unfaithful wives and horrendous divorce settlements. Don't let the little head lead son, it's not too bright. ...and sweet little Ellie Sue will have you gnawing your arm off if you've guessed wrong.

Been there, done that, got the scars.

I don't see any way for this trend to turn around with the birth rates of caucasians running 1.8 children per couple and falling in the US and far lower in Europe with no acceptable explanation for it. 2013 saw caucasian children become the minority in the US, it seems to just be an attitude. War drums courtesy of the wonderful, piece of crap, "religion of peace", brainless, soon-to-be atomic-powered muslims, the extremely shaky state of world economics, the massive third-world exodus due to muslim control into Europe (that is going to turn out really well), the uncontrolled chicano invasion that carries all forms of other organisms and attitudes with it, and a general population that just doesn't give a damn. It's sad seeing the US turning into Nicaragua and Nairobi, breeding without a thought only to live in crime and filth like their parents, grandparents, etc. It'll end the way it always does: war, only this time with atomics instead of TNT, savages with Sarin instead of swords. How it'll resolve itself should prove quite interesting. What is that old, Jewish curse, "may you live in interesting times?" The attitude not to breed was quite high back in the 1970's, San Francisco with the Cold War running toasty, real fears (now true) of over-population lowering living standards, rising crime rates, and whole populations being deliberately dumbed-down for something as venal as political "power."

On top of that, one has a corrupt court system and "laws" that should be a very strong deterrent to marriage and responsible fatherhood. Males, especially white males, are seen as the cause of all difficulties in society, just a general bummer for fatherhood.

None of us want to send our not-to-be children into such a world. Selfish? I don't think so.
