With the world population approaching 7 billion, then 8 billion, the size of families all around the world is a ‘problem’ for all of us. Over-population is a very serious concern. Water, food, clean air, sewage treatment, social services, education, you name it. Everything we need and long for is finite. Large families are often viewed as irresponsible and even inconsiderate to the rest of the population who cares enough to keep family sizes down. It has also been said that parents often have children to satisfy their own egos. If this is the case, larger families might equate to larger egos, and the need to satisfy them. Something to think about. Further, when religion enters the equation–for instance as resistence to birth control because that religion’s God says so–another level of insensitivity is introduced. Not everyone believes in that person’s religion. Simply put, if we are to survive, long-term, on this planet, we must resppect the rights and needs of all other people and the planet itself. So, these are not ethnic or racial comments based on the undesirability of large-families, but rather a basic respect for life.
