[Chai! Only if I could give you a hundred like. You got the idea.quote author=PuZZyNegro post=101654989]In Economics, low income families give birth to many children because to them, children are investment goods while high income families give birth to fewer children because to them, children are consumption goods. To a rich man, children are substitute goods, to a poor man, children are complementary goods. Factors that affect the fertility rate in Nigeria are 1. Price (cost) of raising children 2. Income of the household 3. Taste and preference 4. Cost of other goods. Now, looking at the cost of raising children, a man that lives at Lekki will definitely want to have fewer children because the cost of raising one child is high considering the environmental factors like school fees, rent, etc. Unlike a man living at Ijegun that will only need to drop 500 naira at home for the lunch of 5 children. Now, you know why someone living in the low-brow area of the city will most likely give birth to more children? Because it costs him less to raise them. They can go to government school for all that he cares! Income of the household. Lower income should have mean fewer number of children but the reverse is the case in this country due to lack of education and exposure. Taste and preference. People with high taste will want to have fewer number of children so to maintain a minimum living standard. Cost of other goods. The higher the cost of other goods, the fewer the number of children should be. Nigeria has factors 2 and 4 to help us reduce the population boom but high level of ignorance rather made it to work against us. If you took your time to read this, please save the society by giving birth to no more than 3 children irrespective of the genders. Whatever 6 children will do for you, 3 children when properly trained can do it. [/quote] 2 Likes |

Our system is wack. It does not support educational development. Everything in this country is a struggle. Merit is never given its right of place here in this Country. |
