Pro-natalist policies are strategies implemented by the government to encourage citizens to have more children.
Imagine a school that wants more students, so it offers incentives like free lunch or reduced tuition. That's what governments do with pro-natalist policies - they offer benefits to encourage people to have more kids.
Population Pyramid: A graphical representation of the age and sex distribution within a population. It’s like having a class photo showing all the students in our school, categorized by their ages and gender.
Fertility Rate: The average number of children born to a woman over her lifetime. It’s like counting how many new students each teacher brings into our school every year.
Replacement Level Fertility: The total fertility rate at which women give birth to enough babies to sustain population levels. It’s like ensuring each teacher recruits enough new students so that the school doesn't lose its current student count.
