This matter is simple:

If you like born half, I will born more than that inshAllah my strength can carry.

When I'm struggling training 2 engineers, 3 lawyers, 4 accountants, 5 political scientists at ABU, UI or OAU

You can continue with your lawyer in Cambridge, he will come back to be a consultant or bloody civil servant under the Ministry any of my sons is heading.

Arrant nonsense!!!

What sort of unintelligent statement is. This... Abraham. Had many children so you to should have... If you go by the Bible facts.. Abraham lived more than 5000 years ago... There was land and everything else to support those children.. The competition for resources was not this tough how many people were existing on earth then.. ... ...apart from availability of resources to everyone then.. Even the Bible said he was a very wealthy man with lots of gold... A rich man is allowed to have as much children as you want to.. If you can provide the necessary support for them... But a poor people... Should stick to one or two and not create problems for the society

Southerners shouldn’t breed indiscriminately. Southerners should plan & be ready for the coming invasion. By plan, I mean have the number of kids you can take care of & prepare them like the state of Israel prepares its citizens for war at anytime with its hostile neighbors.

Bro, don't work by sight, work by faith. I come from a family of 7 kids. We went through the toughest of times because my God fearing popsi will not compromise his faith to practice corruption. In the end what we gained most is character, humility, discipline and a fierce fighting spirit. No single sense of entitlement.

Today our last born is in a private university. Our first is a bank manager, second is a doctor in law lecturing in a prestigious university in Melbourn, I have just established a multi million naira factory, my younger ones are starting up real good.

Believe me when I say Nigeria is better now than before. I still remember during Abacha era when my family will have absolutely nothing to eat some days despite both my parents being senior civil servants. My popsi stayed beck at home on two occasions because no TP to get to work. People actually fed from trash cans back then.

Like I said don't work by sight. Work by faith. I know this because when I look at my popsi now am just happy for him. We are still coming up and he is already balling. Remember children are the blessing of God.

James39:
do you think having 2kids keeps you away from the harsh economy? Or do you thinks its everyone with many kids that's poor? Me I just can't takeb2 children. Call me whatever you like. Its my life and my decision

Like I said as for me ooo either maximum or minimum its 4kids.

When you know how to play your cards well. You will understand my own point

Bbbwings:

Have you heard of courtship.
You iron these things out before getting married

abdulizom:
All these stories of 2or 4 kids doesn't add up to me: on the contrary, why should one have even 4 kids in a country with low life expectancy, bad road and terrible health couple non functional educational system when I have the financial capacity to take care of dozen.

Our problem is that we copy the white without applying any sense of logic.
In our peculiar environment, please born as many as you can take good care of. If you don't, sure you'll take care of other people or relative responsibility.

My father had 21 lost 2, having 19 left we are all are virtually doing great, supporting each other.
Having experience joy of large family, I can never ask for a thin or slim family.

My father about 2 years acknowledging that he would have been dead 10 years to his time if not for the children he had.

Suleja-Minna road was blocked down for his Janaiza prayer cos crowd and personalities that attended the burial.

I have 4 kids now, attending one of the best schools in town and by His Grace more are coming .

How will malaria claim one of your children if you’ve not been careless with their welfare? And please don’t wish suffering on your family.

Iya kin se omi obe.

AmarachiAshawo:
While you keep limiting children or follow family planning on not having more than 2 children, the North keep breeding for political reason and advantage. They will keep ruling and lording over us with their population advantage.

Liposure:
One of reasons 4 high birth rate is dat In most communities, people tend 2 hav many kids as dis places them in a special class.another reason is dat families hav a strong conviction dat one or more of the children will become rich n thus change d status of d family.

I know this my thread might get some people angry but it’s a subject that surprises me whenever I think of it. How do normal Nigerians who are educated have more than 2 children in a country like Nigeria with all the poverty & hopelessness? I am still single but I have it in mind to lay a ground rule that whichever woman I marry must agree to family planing methods after the birth of the 1st child whether male or female. And if the 1st baby is male, we can as well wait for another 5 years before having a baby of either sex as the last.

But I wonder when I see Nigerians that are not so wealthy giving birth to 4 - 5 kids in the midst of grinding economic depression and in a nation that has clearly failed. Don’t these Nigerians know that the country can descend into war anytime due to the instability that is so palpable? I get afraid when I see couples who have 4 children in this day & age so I always wonder how they are coping with the stress & the bills. I also wonder why they are not afraid of Nigeria.

inbox, make we talk. Your pic is pretty. Your from Anambra also? Text me in collins4reall@gmail.com

Preetychina22:

Wow

Toneyo:


After I had 3 kids I did family planing. Now, I have 5 kids. Family planning failed me twice.

I could have floushed them but no, I cant abort my own blood.

Things are not that easy for me, but I dont mind putting on rags to give my kids the best. They are all I've got.

uninspired07:


You see the problem? Does one of the kids have to be rich? What they need is to be comfortable & be able to cater for themselves individually. And what you need to get there is a sound legacy of education. I didn’t get any inheritance from my father other than education & it’s serving me well. I also intend giving my 1 - 2 children good education. They should be able to take things from there.

Nigeria will be worse in 20 years time with northern Almajiri kids storming Lagos from the north. No southerner wants to even imagine the carnage that will happen then. By then, the sane ones will be watching Nigeria on CNN from better nations.

fieryy:


Although, I do understand where you're coming from this is rather harsh. They have the right to have kids as anybody else also.

davidque:

Get one thing straight. Not all fingers are equal. While your perspective or reality of things is hardship and difficulty, some people are having the time of their lives in this seemingly difficult time. Many can afford the wherewithal and time to raise 5 children. I have 3 daughters and i dont pray extra prayer for bills and other needs. Not everyone as issues with raising children, some have one and life is hard for them

James39:
See the minimum and maximum should be 4.

I can't give birth to 1 boy and 1 gal.

That's my take. I don't care what others think.

if your parent were so careful not to go beyond 2 kids you won't be here typing this. I'm sure you are not the 1st neither the 2nd.

we are 10 in numbers and we are doing fine.

Blueelf:


Bros, how old are you? No insult but you sound quite immature.

You can plan and plan for the future yet, it'll remain unknown to you.

Have you seen families with 2 kids in abject poverty? Have you seen families of 8 living very well (rich in fact)?

Have 2 kids out of preference and not because of economy. Recession affects everyone; 2 kids or 10 kids. It doesn't factor the number of seed you have. Okay?

emerged01:
As young as I am,I have only two boys and I don’t wish anymore. I don’t even want to think of buying baby food and diaper. When you see your wife changing 3 to 4 diapers in a day and telling you that our baby need different kind of baby food,rice,maize,soya,banana,potato flavour e.t.c I go tell am say...,”but food na food,wetin concern flavor for this matter

Psoul:



Hahahahahahahahahaa....Oga leave matter.
The thing wey we dey talk while going to fetch firewood for bush no be the same thing we dey talk on our way back from the bush.

Leave courtship out of this biko.

Preetychina22:

I beg to differ. You're the one with a poor logic.
A man who has 2 kids and earns 100k monthly will cater for his kids better than a man who earns the same amount but has 10 kids.
It's simple logic, stop twisting it.
