Interesting Fact - Families
According to figures released by the Office for National Statistics, in the UK, the number of women who don't have children has almost doubled over the past 30 years.
(The most common family size in Britain is two children, but nearly one in five of women who had reached the end of their child-bearing years last year had no children, compared with just over one in ten of their mothers.
On average a woman born in 1940 had 2.36 children, while her daughter’s generation had 1.91.
No jokes about .36 and .19 of a child please. That's just the joy of averages.)
