I think there will always be people who want to have kids but I also think we're starting to tread near the point that people just don't find it financially feasible and can find other ways of enriching their lives.

I'm not saying this is likely but I could see a future where the only people who consistently intentionality conceive are the wealthy and those who still adhere strictly to religious dogma.

Either way though that's not really the point. Again, you don't need a cataclysmic shift to cause a downturn.
