    As long as the Catholic Church has considerable influence over the people and politicians, having any form of birth control or contraceptives in impossible.

    So we should see poor couples to have 5-10 children.

    Depends on where you look. We just have too high a population density in the urban areas like Metro Manila.

    And then the other side of the problem is often a big extended family is relying on a single income earner. Not a good formula to raise oneself out of poverty or raise one's social status.


    tama kaya ipatupad ang 2 child policy?
    It has it's merits. But how do you enforce such a policy? Forced sterilization of both husband and wife upon having the 2nd child?


    at yung family program etc etc?
    Just advertising condoms and letting the people access to condoms is already a big political problem. Having a proper family planning program? Not likely if we keep on going like the government has been in the past. No political will, no future, no growth.

    Sa Pinas....bakit kasi, kung sino pa yung mga naghihirap, naghihikahos sa buhay, yun ang marami anak? Pansin ko yan sa mga squatters, or yung liblib na lugar sa mga provinces.

    Sir, lack of formal education is one of the contributing factors why poor people has more kids.

    Another is lack of health teaching on the benefits of having minimal kids.

    Lack of political will, church interference, partisan views regarding family planning are also contributing factors on our booming population.

    I think their thinking is the more kids they have the more chances that one of them will hit jackpot and somehow alleviate them. Of course I tend to disagree with it. I would rather have one kid and put all my resources into and IMo will yield a higher chance of jackpot.

    to people who have virtually no assets, children are their only assets

    Their children are their only way out of poverty

    out of 8 or 10 kids... maybe 1 or 2 could hit the jackpot and pull the whole family out of poverty

    one of them could marry rich or make it big abroad

    or maging artista

    one of them could turn out to be good in business... or politics

    it's a long term bet for the poor

    they make babies, raise them, and hope that in the future their bet pays off

    "Jackpot" theory?

    A part of me would like to jump into that conclusion but I've always thought it was lack of education.

    Or maybe they're just making sure that one of their children will take care of them in old age unlike middle-rich income families who can afford helpers.

    We'll never know unless we walk in their shoes.

    second thoughts about the jackpot theory...

    poor, uneducated people arent known to be forward thinking

    making long term bets require forward thinking

    if they are not thinking about the future and they keep making babies, that means they simply don't care about the consequences of having *** without contraception

    it's classic pinoy bahala na attitude

    bahala na pag nabuntis

    they're horny, they have ***, they don't care what happens 9 months later

    people like that do not plan to have a babies

    they just have babies

    it's biological instinct

    We all must consider that for many of these people having babies are not the result of a deliberate and informed decision. In many cases, the lack of things to do in the evening is what make couples to do their thing hoping to while away the time. So one may say many babies are borne out of boredom. Even with the TV now readily available to them, most of the programs and ads tend to incite or excite them towards the same pre-sleeping activity.

    Had they been educated more about their physiology and not been encourage by pro-lifers tendency to go for quantity rather than quality of life, people might be inclined to opt for a more responsible way of doing the same thing.

    corruption indeed is the biggest problem the country is facing today. i think di pa naman tayo ganun ka over populated unlike other countries, pero patungo na nga lang doon if walang control ang mga tao.

    I think we are overpopulated in relation to our resources and land space. Japan too pero laki naman ng niyaman nila sa atin...
