Exciting News on Fertility
Science Daily reports: Mothers Trade Child Quantity for Quality.
An intriguing headline. My first though was I’d be reading about mothers dropping off all but their favorite(s) at the local adoption center.
Wrong, it’s an article about fertility rates over time. Frankly, we do not need research and science to tell us this:
The researchers also found evidence for an evolved relationship between a mother’s fertility and the fertility of her children — the more offspring a woman has, the larger her overall family will be. This means that women having fewer children will ultimately have fewer grandchildren.
All together now, in harmony – DUH!
