Looks to me that it could be a shortage of affordable nests in pleasant places to live and work. Single use zoning in urban sprawl is not an especially good place to raise kids. If they go outside could be run over by a car. Perhaps there is little space to play around the house, and too far away from other kids. Perhaps mum keeps them inside and they have too much screen time. Then, too poorly socialized to listen to a teacher reading a story at school? Poor school performance, shortage of jobs locally?
Perhaps nesting age parents can't afford to take out a mortgage?
Perhaps the number of kids that grow up on farms and learn from Dad is in terminal decline?
Perhaps neighbors don't know each others names because they spend their lives travelling from home to work and back again, and to the shopping center rather than the corner grocer of old where they might meet some locals. Little boxes, made of ticky tacky. I reckon town planners have got a lot to answer for. Too busy by half. More liberty I say. Less regulation.
