Dysgenics works far more by suppressing high IQ female fertility. Perhaps we should send the girlbosses home so they have to get married, instead.
College-educated women have the same (high) marriage rates they had in the 1980s. The decline in marriage has happened mostly to less-educated women. Certainly not the 'girlbosses'. And within rich countries (like the US) countries with higher female workforce participation have higher fertility, not lower fertility.
The model of 'marriage and babies vs degrees and work' doesn't hold any more.
By modern standards, that is a tremendous success. I know you're comparing yourself to your father, but you and your wife have had three times as many children as the average US couple. And more than twice as many as the average human on the planet.
I'm hoping for four if the stars align.
