Westerners tend to believe these days in smaller families then 5+. But still many would have more then 1-2 kids IF the economy was fixed properly with providing stable and solid paying jobs, costs of kids went down for working taxpaying Americans (majorly healthcare and education costs), and had the government out of their lives on how to raise their kids. Its just to stressful in today's screwed up US to raise very many kids unless your a burden on the taxpayers and don't give a damn about the kids.

I'd love to have about 4 kids myself but I won't while in the US just for those reasons.
