Population is growing in many less developed countries.

Population growth is stangnant or declining in developed countries. But even in some such countries, population is growing due to immigration, legal and otherwise.

Is she really saying that girls in the developed world , better educated people, etc just aren’t having enough children???

The human species is not in any danger of Extinction.

Promoting "free love", abortion, homosexuality, and so forth in Europe and the United States is having the consequence of crashing the developed world's population while the incapable of developing world is having massive amounts of children. (which they can't feed or care for)

Rather than a meltdown where the Earth's population outstrips the planet's ability to feed everyone, we could be headed toward a more subtle but equally disastrous outcome where our population simply does not replace itself fast enough.

"The world has hit peak child," the late Hans Rosling, a professor at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, said in the article.

The obvious problem is that Western society, as now structured, exalts abortion and does not respect motherhood.

The big bomb of respecting motherhood, and fatherhood, is promotion of home “schooling.” Show me a society where mothers “aren’t good enough” to raise their children, and I’ll show you a society which does not have - does not deserve - replacement-rate childbearing.

Population growth is natural anywhere there is adequate food to sustain it, and a culture which does not denigrate it.

It takes a village to sustain motherhood as a respected calling. It takes a village to scorn and reject denigration of parenthood, and place parents above government bureaucrats.

Extinction, probably not.
Idiocracy, absolutely.

I’ve seen different reports (not saying they’re necessarily true) that says almost every nation, even in the worst 3rd World Cesspools, is declining.

The drop-off in China and India is stark over the next 20 years due to the one-child policy and women just not having children.

The drop-off in Muslim nations is even steeper.

Here’s a report from 2015

FWIW

Truth be known, we could put every human alive in the world in the state of Texas and they would each have 1500 square feet of living space.

disclaimer: Texas was an example and not a suggestion by any means.
