Where Are The Children?


Children

Why are so many children born in poor countries and so few in rich countries? (Fertility rate below 2.1 children/woman in average, means population decrease, see here on Wikipedia.)
(Don’t think it was easy to make this poll, or I’m seeing only the numbers… I feel horrible perceiving millions and millions of tragic human fates.)

  • The poor are stupid.

  • The rich are stupid.

  • The rich are too selfish.

  • Southern countries are too family-centered.

  • The poor and old need health care and pension assistance from their children.

  • It depends on education and culture.

  • The poor have no money for contraceptives.

  • Make 6, maybe 2-3 will survive (high child mortality).

  • Complicated, having few children is also a problem in some poor countries (China, Ukraine, Portugal, Greece, Russia, Thailand, etc.)

  • Someone or something is slowly poisoning us.

  • Other (please, comment).

The poor are not stupid, they just need more enlightenment and education.

Same as the kids else they end up poor and maybe stupid..
