The 'poor' recognize that there is more to 'wealth' than paper money.

Mchayy:
Charly Boy also known as Area Fada is back with a long epistle on why the poor are making babies in poverty.

Read what he wrote below.

Go ye into the world be fruitful and multiply, oh! yes that’s what the good book says. However certain people take this literally. They see children as a blessing from God and they view it as their duty to fulfill this prophecy by promoting procreation, rejecting all forms of birth control, including natural family planning.

Children are viewed as a reward from God and the more children one has, the more one has been blessed by God but the big question is, does this put food on the table especially in this hard times?!!

I’m still trying to wrap my head around why the poor have more children when they can’t afford to raise them. And why the rich have fewer children when they can afford to have more. The population demography of any society is vital in Nation building and governments around the world have effected policies to control this growth.
A very good example will be China’s one child per family policy, which has now been upgraded to two. It will be commonsensical to say that people breed their kind this means a rich family is most likely to have rich children, and a poor family, poor children. In Nigeria we have a large majority of low income earners who are multiplying the number of children they have. Children they can not afford to take care of. So wouldn’t it make common sense to say that the less one earns, the less children you should have?

This is one of life’s ironies.

People who are rich and can afford to have more children will not yet those that can not afford it do. Low income spouses spend more leisure time together than families of high income earners. It will be typical in our society today, to see a high income family where both couples are gainfully employed, close work late and get home from a hectic day too tired and stressed to indulge in any intimate act but the lower income earner seem to have more leisure time and less distractions to focus on their love plays with their tomato selling wives. Why is this so?

Breeding children has become a recreational sport for the poor, I feel this is an issue that we all collectively as a society need to address. I use to think that it was mostly in the rural areas that this kind of demography is rampant but that’s not the case, the other day I was shocked to find out that a friend’s security guard who earns 30,000.00 naira monthly has two wives and ten children. Hummmmm, How on earth are they going to survive on that, what type of education, feeding, clothing can he provide for them in today’s Nigeria. Don’t they understand that intimacy between spouses is also an occasion to be savored and pleasurably enjoyed and not just for making babies?

We all need to wake up to the harsh effects that this is having. Government needs to have more enlightenment and sensitization programs that will address this issue. There is a need to inform the populace about the harmful effects of having children that one cannot afford to raise properly. The most obvious aftereffects are when you see children hawking in the street in order to fend for their families. This is not an issue for the government to tackle alone, the private sector also has to join in. The first solution will be circulating constant information about family planning: Due to a range of factors including education and location of living, poor women don’t have access to as many family control measures as richer women so richer women have substantially fewer “unintended” pregnancies than poorer women.
For all my brothers and sisters coping with survival I urge you all to think more about family planning, I know God blesses us with children but we must learn to plan our family according to our means. By the way, I have 9 children but thank God my school fees days are over or else e for hardooooo. So my simple summary today is, cultivate your sperm according to your pocket size. A word they say, is good for the wise.

The poor have more children because they spread their tentacles, they believe if they have 6-8 children one must break even nd be rich than having two kids who might end up struggling..

I agree with you but would also like you to consider the fact that birth control involves money, to either buy Condoms which is the cheapest means other than the withdrawal method which I cannot tell its percentage viability. Why would a man struggling to put food on the table be spending money on condoms or other birth controls.

You are wrong, family planning is free in federal hospitals, poor men are just not educated enough...

Nice write up from the Area Fada Himself, it is indeed worrisome and at thesame time confusing to have poor couples breeding kids they can hardly afford to take care of, and to add to what he'd said already, I think to correct this act is to enforce the fundamental rights of poor children who may have been denied the right to education by arresting their parents and making them to pay for ignorance. We hear of 'Child Abuse' but we seldom get to hear of a parent being arrested and arraigned in court for abusing their children. So I believe when the existing laws that check the abuse of kids by parents or any other persons, is enforced, the poor parents will surely seek for measures to control the number of children they would wonna have.

Some educated ppl still believe in having many kids.
Culture n mindset also has a role.

Remember u may take a man to college but u can't force him to think.

Yes. Because they've a choice.

Poor people, due to lack of education, have lots of kids cause they think maybe one will make it and end up providing for them in the future.

And a woman who spends time getting a degree will want to work. Thus will have less time to have children as well as raise them. Thus lowering her probability to have lots of kids.

And also poor people don't get educated on family planning so.

Have you ever been to the house of a poor man and his wife, if you haven't try and go near one. You will observe that the man only has a wrapper around his waist and the wife has a wrapper covering her breast down to her knee level, that is the only thing they have covering their unclothedness and that is the condition in which they move around the house even during the hot sunny day or in the cold rainy day. Once the woman attempts to go into the room to pick up anything or drop something the man follows up. If they collide in there action starts and that is the only reason why they keep on multiplying every year because even during pregnancy the man is still firing down. They don't know what is called family planning just action all the way.

Re: I Can’t Figure Out Why The Poor Have More Children- Charly Boy by Nobody: 5:07pm On Nov 11, 2015
There are many reasons and let me point out some of them:

1) Most poor unreasonable and the only way to satisfy their miserable lives is to have sex and usually unprotected.

2) Many of them are uneducated and are usually bound by primitive cultural values that praise having more children is blessing.

3) The Nigeria society see having many kids as blessing.

4) Most poor people are greedy hoping to have one child among many that would raise the ones to create a large family thereby respected in the society.

5) Cultural practices encourage people to have many kids in different communities with their various rivalry ethnics.

I think the reason the poor always have many children... Is because they believe "if one no make am for life the other will".....
While the rich believe 2 or 3 children are okay is because they don't want a situation whereby there children will be fighting each other over their parents property after their death....

















But remember MKO is wealthy and fuckin' rich and he get plenty children like pig...
maybe because he was a muslim...

The self acclaimed "area fada" has no doubt lost touch on this one, with what life is about for a majority of people in the "area" he claims to be "fada".

In a country like Nigeria, why would the financially poor not have babies? Nigeria is a very stress inducing, stress filled country. Anything and everything is stress prone. It is not a material only determined phenomenon, it is mainly as a result of the environment. To be in poverty is not just in the financial terms, It also encapsulates an inability to meet psychological, social, physiological, environmental and biological needs in a balanced, predetermined independent manner without the imposition of a force greater than one's will to choose. This is perhaps, why in Nigeria while we have a considerable number of people above financial poverty, an overwhelming number remain impoverished psychologically, socially and so on. The hassle is such that those with material wealth can acquire alternatives: a number of de-stressors to defuse the stress inducer or diversify its effects. What then happens, if you do not have the means to "de-stress". Imagine, after leaving the house at 4am, to a job i only go to, to ensure a pay check at the end of the month (after a bachelors and graduate degrees with countless professional certificates), i endure the psychic overload of equally stressed out Nigerians, on the road, in the bus and at work; i stoically endure an originally 35 minute now turned 4 hour commute to work and back, I come home to a house with no power, i proceed to generate my own power only to realize, we used up the last drop of gas lastnight. I head out to the filling station at 9pm, only to be at the receiving end of a conductor who would not give me change or the attendant who will not sell the commensurate price per litre. I take it in stride, afterall i have to be out by 4am. I get home, i want to take a shower after a 7 minute exercise in generating my own power. In the bathroom, i realise i have to pump water, i head out in my towel, at the mercy of mosquitoes, i begin the process of switching pipes from co tenants water lines to mine, i have to wait another 30 minutes to at least get a bucket...

While all this is going on, (dont let me bother you about my partner's side of things, you know women now) i literally gobble down my dinner without a thought of savouring it, who has the time for that, when i am pumping water, thinking of Nepa bill, wondering how my budget for the week is gone on tuesday, how to raise my 350k rent. I finish the meal, have my shower, sit for a few minutes infront of the tv with a semblance of catching the gist of things happening ( thats not true, i'm only waiting for the water to finish pumping) that done in 30 minutes thereafter. This is like 22.30 hours, i start getting ready for the "gidi" again tomorrow - monday to friday, this is one of the many variations of the hustle. I'm sure yours would be equally if not more dramatic.

All these are just things the average Nigerian goes through and endures monday to friday, while doing that, where is the opportunity to be human, i mean the need to love and be loved, even if there is a chance, ( knowing Nigerians are very ingenious) would that time if its not shortlived, be a time you want to be mental or rational - No, i didnt think so. You just want to kick back and enjoy the company of your partner... The materially poor have babies not because they intend to, it happens when intercourse is the most accessible recreation they have... In developed countries, policies and interventions are designed e.g. the chinese one child per family, contraceptives like morning after pill, temporary and permanent 'clipping' for men, public parks, gyms, community centres, etc the alternatives are available, you are empowered with choice. In Nigeria, where is the choice?

It is not difficult to unravel. Contraceptives involves enlightenment which involves education. Something that is alien to the poor in our society.
Sex is common to the rich and the poor. It is the contraceptive part that the poor do not get due to their illiteracy. Imagine suggesting vasectomy to your uncle in the village or telling your aunty in the village to tie her womb?
