The factors influencing reproductive behavior among population have been analyzed and classified, external and internal factors have been identified. Methods of analyzing the opinions of scientists, public figures, as well as a wide range of people have been applied, for which a sociological survey and an interview have been conducted. The main issues that demotivate starting a family and child relations have been highlighted. These issues have been classified into economic (insufficient material component of family, housing issues), social (issues in medical and child care services (kindergartens, sports facilities for children, etc.) organization), ideological and educational (lack of a successful family ideology, broadcast at the state level, insufficient popularization of traditional family and children relations), and legislative (issues of legal regulation of social support measures for families with children, issues of their enforcement). According to the study results, necessary motivational incentives for childbearing have been identified, qualified for legal and economic purposes. The research materials can be used to adjust state and regional programs of motivation for childbearing, as well as to improve legislation.
