I fully expect it to lower somewhat. It isn't just economics. It is also Disney Fairy tales. Culture is pervaded by the idea of "the one true love" and princesses and castles. People spend their 20's chasing a fake set of ideals. But as material goods fail to satisfy and commitment becomes desirable again people will remember that participation in society via raising a family is the whole point, and 9th graders will start working toward that instead of dreaming of a career in finance. Seriously, whose idea of a dream is that?

It was never either of ours. I had this high-powered industry career, when we met (I was 21.) and on our first date, he asked me what my future plans were and I said, "Get married and have kids." And he was like, "Oh, wow. ๐Ÿ˜ณ Ha ha. Whoa. Never heard a woman reply with that... But same. ๐Ÿฅ‚" Second date, we were already picking out baby names. Our kids have those names. ๐Ÿ˜‚ #TrueStory
