A relative of mine, who lives in Europe, sent this ad to me, because he thought it was funny.
The message isn't, "Be a better parent." No. Instead, it is, "Don't have children."
Too bad our European brothers and sisters no longer understand the blessings of life. There is no major Western European country that is producing enough children to replace the current population. Instead, they are replacing their population with Muslim immigrants. Here are the birthrates for various European countries:

Remember the birthrate for a population that is neither increasing nor declining is 2.1 babies per woman of childbearing age.Ireland - 1.87Germany - 1.3Austria - 1.3Italy - 1.2Russia - 1.2Spain - 1.1.At a replacement rate of 1.1, Spain is at half the stable population replacement rate. This means Spain's population is halving every generation. The magnitude of the numbers is difficult to comprehend. In 2000, the total population of Europe was 728 million. By 2050 at the present rate of births, it will be less than 600 million, a loss of a staggering 125 million Europeans.
Are children really just a pain in the ass, or are they hope for a future?
Not so funny, is it?

Good point, AOW. I hadn't thought of that, but it is true.
