I feel the same, War. It's something I'm very passionate about.
A lot of people would argue, "Why do they have so many children if they can't afford to feed them?" <-- Isn't a valid statement. These people have lots of children in the hope that the girls will be married off for money, so the family is better off. And the boys will become men, and work, to bring money in for the family.
We need to be doing things to HELP our equals, not hinder their process of helping themselves.
