Yes, I dont see why not. If people keep having children and not having the means to feed them, waiting for support from government is the stupidest thing Ive ever seen. If you cant feed them on your own, dont have children, one after the other. In my country there is no social security, yet the population keeps increasing, because labour here is cheap and more the earning members, better for them. (Im talking of cheap labourers) How is the country to cope with such inflation of population in terms of infrastructure and everything. I sincerely feel that a country should dictate, say two to three children max and no more. Only then will the country come up.

I don't think so. I love to have kids of my own and nobody would dictate me and limit me to what I can have and take good care of. In countries like China, i think that they are strict with regards to this, just correct me if I am wrong guys. But as for me if I can take care of my kids and financially able to support them, then no one is going to deprive me of my joys in life. Besides, no one likes to be dictated in the first place. We can decide on our own and what is good for us to have. But in a country where population is already a problem, then i would not dare go at those country, and this is my opinion. We can choose where we want to live and what kind of living we can have. But to set a limit of what one can have as a form of dictatorship present in such country, then I would rather leave that place.

I think yes i will. Its just much more than being personal for me, we cant think about ourselves everywhere, The goerment of my state relates us to better family plannings so that no either of us suffers in it.Too many children leads to a large family which in return leads to largw problems too.So i think most preferably i will go to such places its no harm when we getting the right advices.
