Death of the Nuclear Family - The Future

Way into the future of our Earth. Lines of what is love and care, have been blurred. There is no more fighting to fine that one person, that you want to spend the rest of your life with.  Men and women are treated equally and are given the respect that they demand, vs. it being expected; because they were a man or woman. Most countries have also done this, with a few exceptions.

The countries that have sidestepped this have been shunned from the United Nations (UN) and are looked down upon as backward, homophobic, bigots.   This all came to be with the  with the invention of artificial womb.

At the turn of 2000, marriages were becoming a passing phase, even with gays and lesbians fighting for marriage equality.  Looking back now, it seems so futile.  Woman, focused on their future career goals, and waited till they were older to settle down, marry, and start a family.  Many found it was hard to meet Mr. Right, and would end upnever settling down, but just giving up on finding true love.

A similar problem came when the gay couples wanted to start a family too.  They couldn't have there own children, without having family members willing to donate. 

As the saying goes, “Necessity is the mother of invention".  A small company came out of California called Match a Family (MF). They would start the first wave of

bringing together couples or a single person what they wanted; a family.

It was first meet with criticism, but within 10 years it was the thing to do.  A woman could wait to meet her carrier goals and go to MF to find a man that wanted a family too, but without all the courting and loving each other.  Sometimes loving each other was a side effect, but this was very rare. 

MF would be the middle man in finding the suitable match for man or woman, with the qualities that they were seeking in a caregiver. Also, they would draw up agreements on who paid for what, and how children were to be treated and raised.  To close the agreement, they would artificially inseminate an ovum, and implant it into a segregate or the woman in this co-parenting agreement.

For the first time, parents would live under the same roof, but not sleep in the same bed. Children were raised with the love of each parent, but the parents not necessarily loving each other.

The Future

The children of this new future grew up with mix messages of love, but with the understanding to further the human race, this was a need.  

As this culture of having child in this manner was common place, the population was in decline vs. in the 1900.  This created a new problem.  The human race was selfishly eliminating its self, and within a 1,000 years would become extinct.

Then in the mid 2000, the artificial womb was unfurled to the public.  This was sold as the future of the world, and save the from human race from extinction.  

The UN took a bold step, and with mass approval of the world, initiated the World Birth Act.

World Birth Act

The UN takes full responsibility of the future of the human race’s offspring.

All females on their 18th birthday will go to one of the World Birth Facilities and donate one of their ovaries.

All Males on their 18ths birthday will go as well and donate sperm.

At the end of their visits they will be made sterile as to keep the UN responsible to reproduce the best and the brightest children. The children will be cared for, taught their place in this new civilization. All children will be breed with the best qualities. Imperfections, deformities will be completely eradicated.

This was what the world was craving, and for the most part, happy with. There were the few that ran away, not wanting to have their  freedom to be parents taken away.

The UN had decide  to leave the few that had rebelled and alone; thinking that they would simply just die out.

Or so they thought . . .
