Megan, 25, says they don’t want their 10-month-old daughter, Mary Margaret, 
to be burdened by such high debt when she goes to college. That’s one reason the 
Plano, Texas, couple is unsure whether they will have more children.

The stagnation of population growth in France in the 19th C, which is 
viewed as an anomaly among nations of the time by modern demographers, was 
recognized in France at that time as being the result of widespread syphilis in 
France, and not as the result of exaggerated rates of condom use, or of social 
planning, or of societal bias against small families. The religiosity of other 
nations kept the  syphilis rates down except around ports, but France's 
secularism ever since the Revolution promoted loose morals, allowing syphilis 
free reign among the population. The population stagnation relative to other 
nations left France relatively defenseless, with the result that Britain and the 
US were dragged into defending it. Also, it meant that not many Americans are of 
French immigrant extraction relative to other ethnic groups. However, the 
Catholic church hierarchy in the US has a strong contingent, but only because 
the revolutionaries chased much of the clergy out of France at the end of the 
18th C.:
Quote: In fact, the preoccupation with the effect on birth rate came from an actual depopulation of France at the end of the 19th century and from the bordering nations, especially Germany, victorious of the Prussian French war in 1870. Affecting the physical integrity, syphilis deprived the nation of the future soldiers indispensable for the revengful projects. Xenophobic considerations completed the military preoccupations. Considering the decrease of population supposed to be a consequence of syphilis, the most active people in the struggle against syphilis pointed out the constrasting increase of foreign workers, indispensable to replace the missing French people and regarded as ennemies of the nation.
