[–]AngelFirePi [score hidden]  (1 child)

I know of plenty of couples that have started families in their 30s, including myself, and have had no difficulty having a child.

I think a lot of it has to do with what we eat and our exercise habits. Our society is more sedentary than previous generations and we seem to spend a lot of money on fast food and junk food. Throw alcohol and drugs (prescription and illegal) into the mix and all these could contribute to declining fertility rates.

I've seen articles like this before and they always seem to want to focus on the age of the woman. I think the age of the man is also important.
