The West has already made its choice. We have chosen to do nothing about declining birth rates among the native population and have instead chosen to supplement the population with immigration from developing nations, or whatever term you wish to use for those countries where birth rates are still high. The numbers are plain to see. Where once an extended family was the norm (it takes a village…) now families are atomised. 2 parent or increasingly 1 parent families. Even when an extended family exists (grandparents are still alive, everyone is still married and on friendly terms) it is common for people to move to where the work is. This may be many minutes or hours away from the new offspring.
