    Well, my family is doing our part. We went from 8 people three generations ago on my dad’s side to just one. My wife and I had one son. Everyone else on that side of the family had no children.

    My family is definitely an outlier… There were a lot of DINKs and so-called urban professionals who decided not to have kids. Honestly it feels kind of weird now that my parents are in their '70s, as Holidays are now just my wife, my son and myself. We don’t have a family to have a reunion with.
