I don't agree with the premise (data point: I grew up poor, with siblings), but certainly the inverse isn't true.

Singular data point. Were talking macro level.

Talking about the educated West where people have the information and tools to make the decision.

Context inference is important

Macro level poorer people have more children than middle class and up people. In the "educated west" (and elsewhere in the world as well I think).
extremely strong inverse co-orelation with education even in poor countries.
