Again for people (racists), complaining about falling birth rates:
The birth rate for women over 40 is not falling. The birth rate for women over 30 is not falling.
What's happening, is girls 15 to 17 are having fewer babies. Kids are having fewer kids.
Also, this is an interesting way of saying that "Teen pregnancy is down, due to sex education and contraception."
In 1991 25% of 15 year olds gave birth before they turned 21. That's bad. Now it's 6%. That's better.
