has changed. Young people tend to have children later for many reasons, and I believe that

this

could generate a negative impact on our society in the future.

To begin

with, the main cause for

this

phenomenon is due to educational priorities according to the majority of students in recent years.

In other words

, people prioritize getting a title or graduating over raising a child because they assume that having a baby without any resources or knowledge about something is the principal issue of poverty and homeless children all over the world. Indeed, it is essential to have the economic stability to breed a child and provide for all the needs,

although

, if young adults wait so long to have a baby, especially women in their 30s and above , might cause health issues throughout the pregnancy and it

also

can affect the childbirth and bring some health conditions. Two

such

examples are birth defects, including down syndrome and miscarriage.

On the other hand

, apart from putting their career

first

, teenagers are scared of parenthood and

this

is caused by multiple factors

such

as social media and society overall.

Thus

, topics

such

as pregnancy and what parenthood should be like have become taboo and criticized by our community nowadays and notwithstanding young people are afraid of taking that huge responsibility. To sum up, the new generation is fully considering having a baby later in their life for plenty of reasons, but

this

might have negative outcomes in the future.
