With the earth already reaching it's human carrying capacity and with the UN making predictions about Nigeria surpassing the United states as the 3rd highest population in the world after China and India by 2050, what if in the near future the Nigeria government decides to curtail this exponential population expansion by deciding to regulate the amount of children every couple can have and decides to set the limit to one or two, irrespective of financial capacity. Would you be in support of this kind of regulation? I know lots of us would want an autonomy over the number of children we can have. I know many ladies like myself want to have more than three children. So what's your opinion? |

I'll gladly support such laws. Some people think that because it's their right to procreate they could proliferate everywhere with offspring they have little or no roles to play in their lives. Birth the number you could give your best, not little. So I'll say, they should leave it at two, maximum. 1 Like |

I am glad with the population expansion as it is good for Nigerian businesses because of the larger market it will create and I will not support anything to reduce the population. But if government has to regulate, it should be based on the couples income, I suggest, for every N100k the couple earns monthly, they can have a child, so if you earn N200k monthly, maximum of 2 children, N500k monthly, maximum of 5 children, less than N100k monthly, zero children. 1 Like |

Lubyna: I will not support such regulation,if you can afford to cater for hundred children, then give birth to hundred children....if it's only one child you can cater for, give birth to one....if you can't afford any, give birth to none.....population expansion is a good thing |

I think any right thinking couple should plan towards 2 or 3 kids, no more. Uncontrolled population rise only breeds more social vices and puts a strain on the already limited resources. Ironically its the poor who are more inclined to larger families. 2 Likes |

ultron12345:It is not all about catering for the children, this world is full of negative things, what if a man dies in a motor accident after giving birth to 100 children, don't u know it is a threat to the society. but if it is 1 or 2 children, the governmemt or anyone can easily take them in. Maximum of 2 children per family is what Nigeria needs, regardless of one financial status. how many times have u seen one man having 10 children in America or Canada? We abuse everything in this country, u need to see the way those dangote trucks are load on the high way, far beyond its capicity. Na only Nigeria God tell to go & mutiply...Why is our own different.... How can only one man give birth to 30 children? isn't that procreation abuse? |

ultron12345: I said same here: https://www.nairaland.com/3450586/poor-un-intelligent-people-should-not I was insulted and heavily criticised. Good a thing, I'm being vindicated. Ms Lubyna, There is nothing wrong with people procreating as many children as they desire. However, it should ONLY be if or when they have the FINANCIAL, INTELLECTUAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL and EMOTIONAL capability to raise them. Anything aside these criteria corresponds to forfeiting the right to procreation. It's an act and the height of irresponsibility for anyone to procreate children s/he cannot take ADEQUATE and PROPER care of. "Giving birth is cheap, raising them is expensive" (Gerrard59, 2016). |

It's only a madman that would give birth to more than two kids in today's world. Every child deserves that best possible human experience. 1 Like |

@op, yes. Nigeria is in dire need of a restrictive one child policy similar to China's. |
