Better teach the people not to produce children if they can't nourish them.

- DanBC 12y agoWhat a horrible, ignorant, comment. Look at the recent US drought - were people wrong to have had children ten years ago? How were they to know that some areas of the US were going to be in severe multi-year drought? Why is it different if you change "the US" to some other part of the world? Have a read of "Too Poor To Farm" which explains some of the problems very poor people face, and explains some of the reasons why very poor people have children. http://www.irinnews.org/report/94947/lesotho-weather-extremes-threaten-food-security http://www.irinnews.org/report/94947/lesotho-weather-extreme...
