I have two kids. My kids were both planned. There are specific reasons for that, first and foremost, my wife and I will leave this world with what we entered it with. life for a life, 2 are born, 2 are dead. Now if my wife got pregnant I would not abort a 3rd child but it would be a mistake / accident.
I have no issue with folks having 3 or more kids, however I feel these folks are selfish and care not about the environment or the good of man kind but care only for themselves. I do not believe that we are here to populate this place into oblivian however this is the road many of us have taken.
At one time mankind needed to have large families, the world was a big place and we were a small part of it, that was then, this is now and our current trend IMHO is NOT good.
I could ramble on in length for all the reasons I think the way I do about this topic.
I agree whole-heartedly with the above statement. The world is becoming overcrowded. It is very common thinking, now.
Previously Zero Population Growth, they changed their name to Population Connection February of 2002 and have over 70,000 members. So, you aren't the only one that thinks that way.

There is also a group called NPG (guess what that is).
