Too many children for the amount of resources on our planet. Too many people in the big cities and too many people in the slums.
However, I always felt torn about this idea because I knew in my own life just how important if felt to be surrounded by a large extended family. How could something so good be so bad for the world and community?
And Everywhere I looked, it seemed like people were making important life choices based on this theory. They no longer saw the beauty and loveliness which is THE FAMILY. Instead they saw a drain on the world's resources.
They no longer valued the potential of children and saw THEM as an important resource for the future as their bright souls contributed new ideas to the aging world.
Watching the following video was illuminating and reassuring as it answered some of the questions I had about my own observations of the good of bringing children into the world.
