• W4381620009 abstract "Abstract Study question What are the current attitudes in Flemish adolescents aged 15-19 towards having children? Summary answer While the majority of adolescents want to have children, 25% have ambiguous feelings about having children and 10% indicate a wish to remain childless. What is known already In the past decades, a very positive attitude towards having children has been reported in young people. In the adult population, most people desire to have children or are already parents, but the group of people who choose to remain childfree is increasingly visible and vocal. The current generation of adolescents is more concerned about environmental impacts than previous generations. Study design, size, duration An anonymous online survey of multiple choice and open-ended questions was offered to adolescents in Flanders (Belgium). Forty – four schools in Flanders participated and 1700 adolescents completed the questionnaire from February 2022 to June 2022. We performed a qualitative analysis of answers in open ended questions. Participants/materials, setting, methods Adolescents aged 15 – 19 years old, attending the last two years of secondary school in Flanders (Belgium). Most pupils had the opportunity to complete the questionnaire during class, others chose to complete the questionnaire in their own free time. Main results and the role of chance The majority of pupils would like to have children (60.2%), a considerable proportion is still undecided (24.7%) and 10.8% report they do not want children. Significantly more boys than girls would like to have children (67% versus 61.7%, p &lt; 0.01). Having a positive representation of children and the desire to build a family in the future are the most important reasons for wanting children. Adolescents who have ambiguous feelings or who do not want children are rather pragmatic in their decision-making. They may consider factors such as financial stability, career goals and personal development before deciding to have children. Other reasons for having an ambiguous or negative attitude towards parenthood reflect the sense of uncertainty in association with the current global situation and socio-political situation. Our data do not allow us to conclude whether the observed decline in the desire for parenthood is a temporary phenomenon closely linked to current events, or a more permanent one. Limitations, reasons for caution Participants were predominantly girls and attended general secondary education. The questionnaire has only been distributed in schools in Flanders and not in the entire country of Belgium due to administrative constraints. Pupils with a positive attitude towards having children may have been more likely to participate in the study. Wider implications of the findings Although reproductive intentions can change over the course of a lifetime, our results suggest that the future fertility rate may decline due to an increasing segment of voluntarily childfree people. A balance may be necessary between removing practical barriers toward parenthood, while acknowledging the legitimacy of other life plans. Trial registration number not applicable" @default.
