I understand that the more educated people are more aware of the responsibilities and risks of having children and they use protection more etc. but why is it ALWAYS that more literate and rich populations have lower birth rates? At one point, shouldn’t the literate and able people have children to contribute to the future of their countries?

One thing that you’ve got to remember when discussing ‘the future of the country’ in terms of having kids is that in an advanced capitalist country, there are only a few successful people, so the need to provide lots of kids isn’t there. Especially because of globalisation, the labour is outsourced to other countries, and so lots of people aren’t really needed any more to keep the country running (they rely instead on other countries having lots of people)
