What about birth control?

Postponing having children, until the parents,

are able to care properly for the newborn.

Woman in these countries don`t have rights. They can`t chose if they want to have children. There are no contraceptives available to them because of lack of money. The woman has to obey her husband and he wants sex. She has no choice.

@DAT573 If the woman can't afford a drive to the hospital, how will she afford birthcontrol? There's larger systemic issues at hand. It's an issue of poverty and limited access to basic human rights like adequate health care.
