"He that brought the children will take care of them"

I think it is irresponsibility to bring more children into the world than you can cater for simply because you expect God to take care of them.

Children are expensive.

I was talking to an Uber driver once, who advised me to make sure I do everything I want to do before "I born"

According to him, once you start having children, you can't take some risks anymore or they will starve.

The discussion on family planning should start even before you get married! How many kids do you want? When are we having them? How do we space them?

If you can, don't bring your parents into the discussion, it's not their business the kind of family you want.

I listened to a religious leader say the primary reason for marriage is to give birth. "to dominate the earth"

No sir! The primary reason is companionship, we don't want to be alone, if we're being honest.

Besides, the earth is becoming overpopulated

Don't let people force you.

If you want to have kids, fine! If you don't want to, also fine

Just ensure you plan them, having them too close can place a strain on your finances and health.

You don't want to blame your kids for not "making it in life"

Plan!

One of the reasons I support @CCSImpact

Not planning families has even led to a loss of lives, both children and mothers, they've been in the forefront of ensuring that the right information and methods are used.

Plan, plan, plan! Don't leave these things to chance and luck
