Firstly in the early 1900’s there was no health service and a poor quality of life and there had been an industrial revolution know has industrialization which had meant that many workers and their families had left their homes and extended families to live in houses that were crammed together along narrow streets, poorly built, and incredibly crowded. Whole families were packed into attics, cellars, or single rooms which caused many diseases. This had<a data-href=/writing/document/FKLTY2KVJ class="document__middle white-space--normal source-serif text-l" rel="nofollow" style="cursor:pointer;white-space: normal;"> <i>…show more content…</i> </a></p></span><span class="document__preview text-l source-serif "><p class='text-ellipsis-after'>This caused controversy between religion and social trends, as Catholics are strictly against <a href='/topics/abortion' style='color:#3174a3'>abortion</a> and believe that children are a “God’s Gift” and there was still a social stigma surrounding abortion &amp; contraception yet in recent years there has been a decline in religion so it’s become socially acpectable. A few sociologists are led to believe that feminism is the main cause of decline in the birth rate and <a href='/topics/family' style='color:#3174a3'>family</a> size in recent years and fail to acknowledge cultural differences and ethnic diversity. For example studies have shown Afro-Caribbean’s that have migrated to the UK, prefer not to live with men which has led to a slight increase in lone parent households &amp; south Asian families tend to have bigger families (<a href='/topics/extended-family' style='color:#3174a3'>extended family</a>) and tend to get married earlier then white people which means they are far more likely to have children at an earlier age the British white.<br /> In conclusion there are many reasons for both the increase and decrease of birth rates and family size and there is just a single reason behind the complete changes from 1900 to present. As the as the mode of production changed so did people’s attitudes, state policies &amp; living standards which have caused both the increase &amp; decrease of</p></span></div><div class="paper__gradient paper__gradient--bottom"></div><div class="center paper__cta"><a class="button text-m button--orange" id="ShowMoreButton" rel="nofollow" data-href="/writing/document/FKLTY2KVJ">Get Access</a></div></div></div></div><div class="columns large-4 hide-for-medium-only hide-for-small-only"><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_sidebar"></div><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_sidebar_1"></div></div></div><div class="row essay-preview-block essay-related-block "><div class="columns large-12 padding-1 no-padding-large"><div class="columns large-12 paper--related-separator-new"><span class="paper--related-separator-word">Related</span></div><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_related"></div><section class=""><ul id="RelatedDocumentCenter" class="unstyled"><li id="related-essay1"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Agricultural-Revolution-DBQ-28EF7A578BF8EBA4" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Agricultural Revolution DBQ</h2></a><ul><li>824 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Agricultural-Revolution-DBQ-28EF7A578BF8EBA4" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Agricultural Revolution DBQ</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">During the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the European population grew immensely (Doc. 1).

Also, one could also observe that the population increased the most in the countries that were being industrialized. Europe experienced tremendous population growth, but it was often decreased with plagues, wars, and famine. Food prices rose because there was a great need to feed the steadily increasing European population. This change fueled both the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions.

The reason that the average of children dropped in this era was due to couples waiting longer to get married or spacing the pregnancies out. One of the big causes of fewer children in this era was because of contraceptives. Contraceptives were just discovered and many couples realize that it was a very effective method. With families having fewer children their main concern was getting their children educated and have knowledge about the economy, so they would be successful in the real world. Education became more populated this time in history, about 71% of children ages five to eighteen went to school.

The fight was intense due to women not being able to do decisions for themselves. Since the beginning of civilization, women were expected to produce children from marriage to menopause, in a constant battle to birth more children than died in utero, in infancy, or of childhood disease. The birth and mortality rates were so high that women had to have a stop to it. American white women were considered to be the ones having the most children. In 1800 American women were bearing an average of 7.04 children; 5.21 in 1860; and 3.56 in 1900. During this time the rates were so high because the typical women of the household was supposed to be the one at home cleaning, cooking, taking</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>436 Words</li><li>2 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-satisfactory-essays"><div><span>Satisfactory Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Womens-Reproductive-Rights-1800s-PJHJDDBHYXV">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay10"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Birth-Control-In-The-Late-1800s-FJJ9TTHY5V" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Birth Control In The Late 1800s</h2></a><ul><li>664 Words</li><li>3 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Birth-Control-In-The-Late-1800s-FJJ9TTHY5V" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Birth Control In The Late 1800s</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Beginning in the late 1800s, birth control began being sold by manufacturers as a two hundred and fifty million dollar industry.

Thus leading to the intended effect of birth rates decreasing from seven children per family to two and a half children (Ulrich, ). In addition, Tone states that women of African American race and others of low economic status did not have as strong an effect. The birth rates of these individuals remained roughly the same.

In many countries, governments have ulterior motives for reducing population, some are positive, aiming to increase women’s health but most commonly the case is that families only provide economical benefits and development for the country. A decline in population means that the government can invest more “per capita in education and health, thus creating the human capital for sustained economic growth” (S. Sinding, 08). The Government “planned population numbers in the same way it planned the production of goods” (Anders, 2014), which resulted in physical and emotional turmoil for families across the
