I live in Fastiv small town near Kiev. In my parish laypeople have conservative views. But families in which only one partner is Orthodox Christian have 1 or 2 children. In Kiev many Orthodox families have 2 - 3 children and they say that they want no more. But I have no trustworthy statistics of number of children in Orthodox families. When I visited parishes in Kiev I had seen few children (roughly one fifth of all).
