The Cost of Living Childless | True Lives

From 1950 to 2021, the global birth rate has declined by half. This documentary explores the declining birth rate in the UK, as well as the rest of the world. By 2050, it is predicted that over half of the countries in the world will have fertility rates that are below their placement rate of 2.1. The replacement rate is the number of children that each couple must have on average, to maintain a steady population. The piece will draw on the perspectives of people from different generations to gauge the changes in societal and economic factors of having a child. The Baby Boomers: Patsy and Michael. A married couple from the Baby Boomer Generation who have 4 children. For them, the joy of having children outweighs the cost. The Millennials: Social media influencers, Khareem and Jasveen. A young couple who would like to have children, but feel they are not able to largely due to the cost of living. Drew. A young woman with no desire to have children. She doesn’t like the sound of becoming a mother and the life that would follow. Having children is a choice that an increasing number of people are deciding against. But this has implications for society. Credits: Reece Ferreira. Rosalie Nangle. Dante Ellington-Grant. Yasmin Ahlatcioglu. Emmanuel Agunsoye. Denisa Danel. Abdul-Kareem Adelekan. Matthias Doepke.
