Don't poor people usually have more kid in developing countries as that's basically the retirement plan? That's how I read parent's post, I'm assuming wealthy citizens have closer to western levels of offspring also in India.
- Creationer 7y agoIts a cultural issue. There are a lot of poor countries in Europe and East Asia. Why don't they have a lot of children? Why do women from Africa and the Middle East, who are given permanent refuge and full material support, still have such high numbers of children? Dare I say it: I think its also an IQ issue. Deciding to focus and invest in just one or two children takes planning and forethought. For whatever reason (environmental, genetic) some people do not have those capabilities.
