FAMILY PLANNING IS THE ANSWER!!!

[Flipsify]

A LAME REASON of poor families to say it's good to have more children coz MAYBE one or couple of them will be a successful someday and become a PROVIDER of the ENTIRE FAMILY. FAMILY PLANNING should be strictly taught but authorities/church think it's their choice. The SIZE of the territory is STEADY but INHABITANTS EXPAND RAPIDLY--the result is the INCREASING price of LAND, limited FARM lands, INFLATION of COMMODITIES, DETERIORATON of living condition, INSUFICIENT JOBS and WIDESPREAD TENSIONS.

no matter what i have compassion for the poor and i pray government and "kind hearted" weathy individuals build programs to teach people how to get out of poverty. It is the right thing to do. and it is easy for someone not in this position to criticize. show u lack heart. poverty can stike anyone at anytime so please dont judge....god doesnt like ugly. PEACE

Poverty is not a disease, it is a choice. You pop out five kids at a young age and with limited resources, deal with your own stupidity. helping them will just help imbeciles breed.

[einjehl88]

that's my same view before. but we must see also that these poor people were also victims of "powerful elite" who are taking advantage and continually disempowering them.

poverty now in Philippines is intergenerational. because the poor cannot afford to go to school, of course this will also lead to them being jobless. and the chain goes on...

i think they themselves don't want to be poor, who wants it right? i hope you'll be aware of the deeper truth of poverty in our country.

Bakit nanganak ng lima??? bakit??? You should think before making children...

[TotallyAwesomeGuy28]

easy for you to criticize, but when you're uneducated and poor what else do you do all day? No work, no food or electricity! at least they get laid!

[cyjeren]

to let u know my parents were also uneducated and they were only poor farmers, but i ask my mother bakit 3 lang kami? my mother replied sa hirap ng buhay manganak pa ako ng higit pa sa tatlo? hindi pwede yun, my mother was really into family planning despite of her uneducatedness, and i am not criticizing them, i am sad for them...

[TotallyAwesomeGuy28]

Not everyone is as smart as your mom. I grew up with maids in Manila, went to private school. I used just ignore that rampant poverty in the philippines, just looking at it from the window or our car. But after living in the States for many years and coming back for the first time I could not take it! para akong sinasampal everytime a street kid asked for "limos", Why do they have to live like that? I was lucky, that's the only difference between us.I'll live there again when I finish my masters

ok comeback home soon and help the poor, maybe u can established such community based let us be thankful, pasalamat nalang tayo na we have a better opprotunity than them and for that maybe we can help them a little bit, but sometimes, naging ganyan din sila it is because masyado tamad, nagsusugal lang, well not all of them, and i am not criticizing them, based on sa nakikita ko ha...God bless and ingat lagi...

as long as you have people problems will be repetitious meaning you must stick to the first problem to be eliminated and that is low costs housings-condominium. roof in the head must be national priorities second is local open market buildings every mile for initial businesses then local town-city roads as toll roads. toll roads income is for social bigger loans to upgrade their dreams then on-on

good insight

[morecicero]

wow this is a great video. truly substantial and eye-opening. just a suggestion though, if u want more people to see this video, it should be renamed to something more generic that would lead to more people hitting this.the present title is too specific and too unknown of to generate a big # of viewers.
