Believe it or not there are couples that are intellectually competant that have no desire for a child. It is very easy for one to get pregnant; all it takes is a few drinks and one mind slip.

I've heard similar reasons before for why some couples are childless.
Its a bunch of crap really.
The western worlds population is shrinking, the US would be stable as is. The only growth is from immigration.
So you are not 'saving resources for you children' you are 'freeing resources for other peoples children'. There are parts of the world that are overpopulated, but its a local issue, the 'west' as we call it, isn't one of those parts.
So if you think not having children is saving the planet in some way you are sadly mistaken.
