  What did your African ancestors have before you heard about the 'Son'? Nothing but religious bullshit.

  You make noise about the benefits of having many children, but you don't seem to see the difficulties and hardships being experienced by many African families where cultural traditions and Islamic practices allow for multiple wives that often results in a household of many children. The end result is that many of these children often have no future in their own African countries, hence the continued practice of many Africans running to other countries in search of a better life. Africa needs to start determining how to guide its families towards family planning so that the unnecessary hardships experienced by many families due to having so many children in one household doesn't continue to negatively impact the futures of children in these households. You gave the example of Michael Jackson, a man who was born in the USA where the government has social programs to assist families regardless of the number of children in the household. And yes, many of the households in Michael country who produce so many children per household often are the families struggling to raise their children due to financial challenges. How can you advocate for families in Africa having many children when you see all these children in the streets of Nigeria and Ghana begging for alms daily? There are more households in the Michael Jackson's country where many highly talented artists just happen to be products of a nuclear family, so there's no evidence that having many children per family is an indication that a musical genius will be produced in that family. You can't see all the struggles in many African families to provide adequately for their children and then advocate for families to have many children when you should rather be talking about quality of life.
