Yesterday I read about a family in a developing country who had more than five children. Most of them were sold as child brides and sex slaves to get money to feed the parents, but it could be less expensive for the parents to not have them in the first place. They said they did it so they could feed their future children and themselves, not to be mean. If you had a child and saw you couldn't take care of, you've seen it ended up as a bride or slave, become very miserable, why making more children if they ends up with the same fate? Actually, many of the child brides are ca. 12 years old. Some are even sold as 5 years old and not all of the buyers are honest people. Some may be pedophile. Many of the parents would be less poor if they didn't have many children. You may earn more not having children at all than making many and sell them. #Poverty #Poor #Kids
