I thought the same thing, too, about the parallel between good education and low fertility levels. From what I've read, in agrarian societies, children are needed for labor ("helping hands" on the farm essentially). So back then (and still now in more agrarian oriented societies), I guess the old mother nature rule holds. Now, education is just too expensive (and becoming a lot more expensive in some regions, for example the US). I can vouge for that! Hi Per, thanks for the comment.

And its interesting that there seems to be a parallell between good education and low fertility levels, what do that say about us as the animals we are whose only purpose according to mother nature is to have kids.
