What's the effect of having plenty children to the national economy of a country

[Bushdark]

To me having plenty children isnof no use and it is just a way to create over population in a country. This is the major problem. China is facing now and they are trying hard to control it so that the population will not excess the total plan and provisions for the country. I think there are more safer ways to regulate over population which involves control birth rate.
 The government are mostly responsible for restructuring of her country in a way that citizens will not keep producing children unnecessary. There are laws that need to be set aside to reduce over population then there is uncontrollable birth rate.

This issues of having plenty children isn't right at all, to my own ideas having more than five children is not advisable in the society more especially if the parents doesn't have enough money to take good care of their children both educationally and financially, this can make children suffer for no reason, like my home we don't have much money but we can survive on daily basis because we are not much in the family two (2) boy and a girl.
I heard a man said that sex is the only pleasure the poor can have because they don't have the money to get it out side their family and I think that's true, some families have more than ten (10) children because of the selfish pleasures they want and it's not good, no matter how rich or poor anybody can be, is better to have family planing so our children won't suffer for no reason.

Unfortunately and as sad as it is the reason you provided is true. Many individuals and couples from the poor sector of the community have stated that unprotected sex has become such a daily thing for them that it can be categorized as a hobby. And these same people are the ones who have 6 or more children in their family which are all not enjoying the rights they have, such as rights to education and rights to have a decent environment to live in.

This uncertain economic condition has had a significant and very pronounced impact on the middle to lower class in carrying out their daily lives, especially for families with many family members. However, in some places this is not a problem, most still adhere to the motto "Many Children, Many Fortune".

It turns out that this motto also happens a lot in my country. Many children have a lot of fortune, actually it does not mean that many children immediately become very rich because of the child who bears the cost of living in their arms. If parents think like that, it means that the child is just an investment, so they can make money for him. In other words, raise children not because you love them, but because you want to be rich. If you think like that, if your child doesn't succeed, you will definitely blame your child while bringing up his services as a parent.

Many children have a lot of sustenance, which means that the sustenance we get is for that child, so 1 child, 1 flow of sustenance, the more children the more the flow of sustenance, but the sustenance is for the child, not to enrich the parents. The provisions vary, such as income to buy healthy food for children, children's living necessities, holidays, children's schools, etc. If you want to be rich, do business, instead of making children keep telling children to return the favor they have given. born so they are rich. If we raise children in a good and sincere way, then the children will also feel for themselves how sincere their parents are and in the end they will be happy to help their parents' lives, without being "squeezed".

Yes. The government also reads this gap very well, where the government is also trying to reduce fertility rates by suggesting various programs for people who are seen as belonging to that category.

But now in my country the government has reduced the child birth rate, by providing family planning programs. Any family with two children is enough. The reason the government is doing this is because many children are not qualified. Yes, their growth and development is disrupted, even fails, including their brains. In the future, when they reach school age and become adults, they tend to be unable to compete with other children, and the educational process at school becomes disrupted. In the end they will become human resources who are unable to compete economically as well, again their education is disrupted. And conditions like this can later affect the growth and development of their children and grandchildren.

Imagine, if our children and grandchildren are not qualified, we are not able to compete academically and economically, we can continue to fall into the poverty chain. So, the program is not only a health problem, but an economic and social problem.

The problem does not lies in having a number of children, the challenge here is lacking the adequate proficiency to make provision for every child by their parents, children that we cannot carter for should bot be given birth to, there are ways we could look into our personal economy planning and balance the way we live without affecting our children.

We should not depend on the government also to take charge of our responsibility in taking care of our children, population is what should increase the GDP of any country and not to be a burren to it development, in this regard, government have their role to play and same time the parents also have their own contributions to give in building a national development.

When all children start school, especially when enrolling in public schools, costs can add up dramatically. Of course, it should not be forgotten that having more mouths to feed will also require more finances.

But in the long run, having more children can also be positive. Having more children can also benefit the country's workforce, contributing to economic growth. But yes, this should be carefully considered, should not ignore the current financial difficulties.

Is there an effect both positive or negative to the county's economy when couples have plenty children?

In the past before the current economic era, around the 15th century and the beginning of the French industrial revolution, having many children was seen as fertility and good for both the family work force and country's also. The labour force was majorly manual and those who worked at the plantations were sort after as able bodied men or women.

But at the moment, what is the viability of having many children especially as it could reduce the per capital income.

I think it's the dream of many people to have a complete family, but it comes with high responsibility and is expensive to raise children. In most developed countries, it is becoming a struggle to keep the population growth up within the native populations, because it can be hard enough to buy or even rent these days, so starting a family has all these additional obstacles. So many people are being put into debt at the earliest ages, with university degrees that cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars and taking a long time to pay off. While others may have children and struggle to support them, the most responsible are perhaps putting off the decision and may even leave it later than is wise.

Am still surprised that people are still giving birth to plenty of children even with what is currently going on, with how the economy is failing, the standard of living has increased seriously, and feeding children these days is a thing to think about as a result of how commodities are getting expensive, I feel countries have to start putting regulation on birth, it will be one of the measures to control the population. and that is where the problem is coming from the population exceeds the availability of food supply and also jobs, it has made the whole situation difficult for the government to even provided since the resources are limited. I think countries like China have laws that control birth since they already have a situation on the ground.

This is a critical aspect for the government, because if they want to implement what China implemented a few years ago, the economy will still suffer. Right now, you'll notice that China has a smaller labor force and most of their population is old, which means most of them are retired and asking for government assistance. Though implementing this is good, but we should also consider a pause in a year or two to continue the population because in the future we will face population decline.

I agree with you, their is no need of having much children, it just only a way of increasing the population of a region and i don't think if these will be advantage to  the economy of a country in any way and even to a particular home having plenty children is just a way of increasing expenses. Birth country is very important in a country which will definitely help the growth of the economy. When the population of a country is low no matter how terrible the economy is people won't be too affected with hard life compare to when the population is very high.

We've got a population problem and that's why you see left and right conspiracy theorists telling about depopulation. But honestly, I just see nothing on it as it's the typical thing of having more labor force and military force to a government. And the problem keeps on going on, teenage pregnancy, birth rates keep on increasing which is no good at the beginning when the bearer isn't prepared for this to happen. That's why if a person can't afford to have a baby, better not do it.

First of all, I get your perspective on the whole "too many kids" problem. You know, feeding children these days? Extremely pricey. And let's not even talk about the absurd prices at retail establishments. As in, why are apples so expensive? But controlling births, dude? There are a ton of worms in that

You see, even if it's tempting to say, "Let's limit the number of kids!" you need to consider greater implications. It's not only about employment or food; it's also about individual liberties. And sure, China implemented the one-child policy, but let's face it: things weren't all good. Therefore, perhaps we ought to consider the big picture before acting all "let's control everything," huh

[bussybuddy]

Well, it's important to have enough population growth to sustain the economy. Only in this way can we maintain a stable source of labor, ensure that there are enough workers to participate in production activities, and contribute to the development of the country.

But the negative impact cannot be ignored. Rapid population growth can lead to increased unemployment, stiff competition for jobs, and pressure on social resources and services. This affects the quality of life and the sustainable development of society.

Nor can we ignore that a high growth index does not guarantee good ratios for other indicators such as income, quality of life and life expectancy. Overpopulation creates challenges for education, health and infrastructure systems.

[sokani]

Back in the days during the time of my great grand parents, procreating large number of children was seen as labour force. The more the children, the more labour force, the more proceeds from farmland. Civilization has taken over and all those things are of the past. Having many children in this present era and not having the financial capabilities to give them proper care and quality education means they would end up roaming the streets and becoming nuisance to the society. No wonder a country like China at some point had to come up with stern measures to control the pupolation and to reduce some of the ills in the country.

Bearing more children does more harm than good to the family. It causes over- population which is part of the problem most developing countries.

When all children start school, especially when enrolling in public schools, costs can add up dramatically. Of course, it should not be forgotten that having more mouths to feed will also require more finances.

But in the long run, having more children can also be positive. Having more children can also benefit the country's workforce, contributing to economic growth. But yes, this should be carefully considered, should not ignore the current financial difficulties.

Indeed, by having many children we will have many responsibilities in order to educate them well, of course it will cost a lot if we have many children. So it will be very important for couples to consider the good and bad impacts, there needs to be planning and looking at our economic conditions, of course this will be very good. I think you only see the good impact in the future by having lots of children, but if we don't educate them well, of course these children won't be able to contribute to the world of work.

[demonica]

If they can't support their children financially, then obviously it's a problem. People on on lower class tend to rely a lot on government's help so if a family is already struggling financially and they will have more children, they will rely more on the government. Although it's the government's job to help its citizens, but there would be no or lower economic progress if poverty and over population is increasing. Also in some cases, children are being exploited. They would let their kids ask for money on the street or kids will be force to work at a young age when they should be studying, and some are being abandoned. Which also have a negative effect to the economy.

[tygeade]

There is a net positive effect of having more kids in a country. It means you have more people so more capacity in production and finances. Its net increase on total purchasing power too (more people = more taxes) compared to countries with lower population. But its not something related to personal wealth of people sadly.
Having not enough children in a country may cause labor shortages which would be very bad. Most of European countries are accepting more immigrants because of labor shortage I guess.

That is both true and wrong at the same time. It's good for the national economy, it's true that you are going to end up with more profit that way as a nation because you will have a lot of people and that means if you utilize them all and unemployment is low that means there are a lot of people working and that equals to making a lot of profit at the same time.

That is why the government would rather have a lot of people, as much as possible, to make sure that the nation is producing enough for itself and also excess to sell other nations and make more money. However, when you have a bigger population, it's also harder to provide a simple life for them, even the basic needs becomes expensive and that's why it's going to hurt a lot.

difficulties in educating children, differ in each country, in some developed countries (like france) to provide a good education (the best school), good food and nutrition for children requires a large amount of money. but there are many developed countries that are currently experiencing birth rates, so is not having children the best solution? the answer is no, the government shouldn't make it difficult for young people who want to have children with stupid programs and costs, if many countries provide the best education for free, and also costs for children for school support purposes then I'm sure the birth rate will go up again.

[savetheFORUM]

I couldn't agree more. I always say this and I think it is very important to emphasize that giving birth to child with poor economy and environment does not just bad for the parents but also to the child. Long gone are the times when it is okay to have birth and see where everything goes. Today, family planning is vital to ensure the child and the family's future.

It is very logical indeed when a family is in economic difficulties actually having many children is something that will make the family worse off, this even applies to a country, a poor country will find it more difficult when the population addition does not match or is in line with the per capita income of the population .
There is no other solution apart from family planning which limits children in a family, as far as I know there are several countries that implement this.

China once had family planning rules implemented for the whole country where a family couldn't have more than a particular amount of children because their population was increasing significantly, they are still the most populated country in the world but they have controlled the birth rate very well which was increasing rapidly before such a rule. So it surely can be destructive for a country's economy if the population is crossing a sustainable limit.

Generally, when a family has financial issues, they will think of this thing themselves that they shouldn't have a lot of children because they won't be able to feed them all, but when a family has no such issues, they would barely think of the economic advantages or disadvantages unless there is an official rule of not having a lot of children.
