Osun journalist and Development advocate, AdedayoOdeniru, has shared a wise message to women of childbearing age.
In a post shared on his Facebook page, Odeniru advised women not to just be breeders. Explaining further, he gave reasons why women should not have many children.
According to him, when a woman has many children, the responsibility of raising them might fall on her shoulders alone when her spouse dies, becomes irresponsible or falls ill.
Odeniru added that older children are forced to raise the younger ones in cases of parental death.
“Dear Women, it is in your best interest to not have too many kids. Too many factors should make you pay attention to this very closely,” he wrote.
1. What if you have to take responsibility for the kids alone? Spouses die. Spouses become irresponsible. Spouses become helpless in cases of illness.
2. While you raise kids, your life’s balance gets altered. The more kids you raise, the longer your period of imbalance. It would help if you had a life of your own too. It would be best if you achieved some success yourself. Don’t be just a breeder!
