At any given education level the richer people have more children.
Once school is completed educated women have children at the same rate as uneducated women but they have fewer years at it.
Most women still say that they want to have 2 or 3 children but educated women are more likely to fall short of their own stated desire.
So it looks like it is the time that school takes up is what makes more educated women end up having fewer children and more educated women tend to be richer. Colleges might want to cater more to married with children students.
