Men shouldn't have the final say as to how many children their women bring into this world, only to suffer and die from malnutrition and disease. Women need to be educated and thereby, empowered, to know that they and they alone, are responsible for what happens to their children, in far too many cases. How we go about achieving that, with the men that exist in this world, is beyond me. Heck, we can't even address it in our own communities in this country, as men freely impregnate and then, take off. And women appear to feel no hesitation or shame about having five/six babies by five/six different men. I raised three sons, and if I taught them nothing else, I taught them to be fiscally, as well as emotionally, responsible for the lives they might help to create!! But, what do I know...I am old fashioned.
