Mi Hazánkosok! Hány gyermeketek van?

4, Az első generációs bevándorlók általában még hozzák a saját országukra jellemző gyerekvállalási kedvet is. Azonban a generációk elteltével ez a gyerekvállalási kedv egyre inkább hasonul a befogadó ország többségi/őshonos lakosságáéhoz.

"although Muslim immigrants do have more children than other Europeans, their fertility tends to decline over time, often faster than among non-Muslims."

"In Austria, for example, Muslim women had a total fertility rate (an estimate of lifetime births per woman) of 3.1 children per woman in 1981, well above the 1.7 average for the majority Roman Catholic women. By 2001, the rate for Catholics had fallen to 1.3, but the Muslim rate had fallen to 2.3—leaving a difference of just one child per woman between Muslims and non-Muslims."

"The gap narrowed even further in the former West Germany, where the authors relied on data by mother’s nationality rather than religion. West Germany recruited a large number of workers from Turkey beginning in the 1960s, giving Germany one of Western Europe’s largest Muslim populations. In 1970, Turkish women living in West Germany had more than two more children than German women. By 1996, the difference between these two groups had fallen to one child."

"Recent trends in the Netherlands tell a similar story (see figure). The fertility gap between native-born women and women born in predominantly Muslim Morocco and Turkey narrowed considerably between 1990 and 2005."
