Newsweek - America's teenage population is expected to shrink in the coming decade, whilst the number of people aged 70 or over expands by 14.5 million, research suggests. According to figures published on Tuesday by John Burns, a U.S. housing industry research outfit, the number of 15 to 19-year-olds will decrease by 700,000 between 2023 and 2033, as will the number of 10 to 14-year-olds. Chris Porter, chief demographer at John Burns, told Newsweek that it had derived the smaller proportion of teenagers at the end of that timescale from a general decline in U.S. births from 2007 through to today.
"Teenagers in 2033 would have been born between 2014 and 2020, and we saw births during that period of time declining from nearly 4 million in 2014 to 3.6 million in 2020," he said. "As for the older population, we saw the large[st] rise in the population 60 years and older over this last decade.

No person in their right mind wants to bring kids into such a dangerous world, which is why women are moving out of anti choice states.
On the bright side, less people means less pollution.
