We live in a world of very finite resources and the less mouths to feed the better it is for everyone because everyone has more resources per person, right? Don't we have enough problems without adding more due to lack of contraception? It seems to me that if everyone had 4 kids per generation we'd be completely screwed in like a hundred years, wouldn't we?

There's plenty of food to go around. California alone produces enough food for a quarter of the world's population.
Oh...and I also liked this answer.

It should be criminal. It borderlines child abuse when you can't feel and cloth your children. That's the problem when your poor. All you have to do is have sex. The children come from people want to have something. Something that people can't take away.
This is the problem with feeding all the poor countries for free. All they will have more kids and abuse it.
We have this problem in the US too. Ignorant people have children they can't raise, can't afford and we are guilted into feeding all of them.

I don't think it's criminally wrong. I think it's irresponsible to some degree. Every person has the right to have children, however, I feel it will eventually lead to draining of all our resources and until we can get our planet healthier, the less people the better.

It's only wrong if the parents cannot or do not support, love and take responsibility for their children.

Don't think it is criminally wrong; however, something has got to be done about all the starving children in this country.

we have planned ahead for growth and so we may need to gradually back off from reproducing so much.
