Abstract

The changes by modernity cover all aspects of life, so that it can be recognized at all levels. level of fertility and people's desire to have children is somehow affected by it. Despite the population increase policies, the fertility rate in the society is at a low level, and this research seeks to study the value system of not wanting to be fertile among women living in Tehran. To examine the beliefs and attitudes formed under the value system of people, the best recommended method is the qualitative method. By using the grounded theory technique and conducting semi-structured interviews with twenty-three married women who have not voluntarily experienced childbearing, the data after the necessary coding into eighteen subcategories, two main categories "transition of value from childbearing and rethinking childbearing" And finally, the "child of profit-making reluctance" resulted as a nuclear category. Among the reasons for the emergence of the consequence of "unwanted child for profit", we can point to the transitional conditions of Iranian society, in which child bearing has been reconsidered as a choice among other choices of women. And depending on the conditions and contexts and according to priorities, it is postponed in the most optimistic state, and most married women seek social and economic stability in the early years of their life together, and due to increased independence and access to the resources they want not wanting to their spouses and those around them, and of course, they do not consider population incentive policies to be effective.
