      I mean…even for someone in a wealthy context, that would seem oversized.

      How so? Each member is only raising four or three children here. If you’re having issues with people having more than two children then that’s just kind of ridiculous, frankly.

      Also raising children being a ridiculously expensive affair is partly a Western problem with uniquely Western causes. It’s not a thing everywhere.

      Thr birth control topic seems like something nobody wants to touch with a 43 1/2 foot pole…

      The only 13.2588 meter pole here is the one you’re using to avoid saying “I’m pro-eugenics” with.

        No, I just don’t think every time anyone anywhere in the world has sex it should necessarily equate to another +1 mouth to feed and the added pressure of being responsible for yet another being because you had sex for any other reason than procreation, god forbid
