Maybe if schools taught children how to be civilized members of society rather than little demons with high self esteem more people would want to have children.
They also downplay the impact of so many homosexuals in these places. The numbers are far above the 2-3 percent figure you see for a national average. I would say in places like NYC and SF, it must be more like 15-20 percent.

Since when is it the job of SCHOOLS to teach kids to be civilized?
Isn't that the RESPONSIBILITY of PARENTS?
I live about 10 minutes west of this district and my neighborhood is filled with kids. Here in Portland you can have a great neighborhood within a few minutes of downtown but at a way more affordable price. A minute from my front door we have a park, trails, our own boutique shopping center going in, a school up the road. Who needs expensive and cramped high rises, even if they're in a cool neighborhood?
Ahh, the dead end culture of ME. Between the spoiled Yuppies and the Homo "creative" class, they truly are the evolutionary dead-enders. Keep aborting, considering that most of the kids aborted are from lefties, no wonder the country keeps voting futher right.
Helps explain the far-left politics.
I would rather someone with less maturity not be responsible for molding our youth, it is actually refreshing that they are refraining from having children. Usually immature people make immature decisions, and they usually involve children.
Wait till another 20 years pass and the city center will belong to the old and infirm. Wonder if they ever thought of who is going to take care of them? But then again, this "creative" class, just like our hubrissed CEOs doesn't have time to think of the future, there is to much in the here and now.
They learn those lessons at home - or don't.
Ha! What bull s*$&#! The author obviously never actually took the time to visit Portland or he would have known that the last two times we voted against funding light rail (MAX) line extensions. The only people to whom light rail is popular is the dim bulbs in the city council. Gentrification caused by the new light rail line helped drive lots of families out of the area.
Go to Stockholm, at least they're good looking blondes there.
And some can not procreate even IF they wanted to. These vibrant cities are also homosexual meccas... The selfish politically correct and homosexual agendas are in direct conflict with propagation and support of family life...
Heck, down south we're building schools all the time. Can't keep up.
Now, if you want my true opinion of the federal educational system, that's another thing, probably for another thread. Except to say a lot of the 'want' of children in this article seems only for the 'free' money.
It's been very hard to me to find any Euro-stock American women who want to have more than 0 or 1 children. Thankfully, I've found a wonderful woman from Korea who came here for school and wants to have 2 children.
How about knocking-off this blasphemy?
........DUH.........could it be because San Fransico is the CITY OF HOMO'S???? nah
