In my country, it is pretty common for parents to have kids then think that their kids are their hope. That is because they get kids without being financially ready for it yet and then they just eventually hope that when their kids grow up they will be the ones to build wealth for them. But is having kids the reason why people end up financially worse over the years? Do not get me wrong, kids are a blessing but realistically speaking they are expensive. Is it fair to yourselves and to the kids to have kids just to leave it up to them to be wealthy and let them grow up through hardships?
This is the mindset of many poor ignorant people, they will keep giving birth and multiplying children with the hope that one or two of them will grow up and become rich to take them out of poverty. They don't reason that one or some of the kids can become criminals and give them heartbreak, in the end poverty will keep increasing and most of them will die miserably. Enlightened people plan how many kids that they can afford to take care of and when the kids starts to come they will give them the very best care and education that they can afford.
There is a part of a country that has a lot of terrorists, if you research you will find out that most of the parents and children born in that part of the country are destituts, very impoverished and that is why they can be easily recruited into terrorism. If the parents were enlightened and stop giving birth to uncountable children, poverty will decrease and they can resist crime.
