A third world view on childfree ideology.
Here in Brazil, anyone who decides to not have kids in an attempt to save the world, will soon became frustrated in seeing uneducated and miserable couples in slums having 6 or 7 or even 10 children. The decision is clearly useless and is clear to me that the only solution is a massive education program for ignorant people, teaching contraception techniques and a government incentive of a free and voluntary sterilization. I know that these measures are very polemic, but you must realize that few couples in poor countries having many children will overcome dozens of childfree Americans or Europeans. So, if you don't want to have kids, its ok, being a mother or a father is not for anyone because it's a hard task. But do not try to convince your friends who want it, because being a father (and, I wonder, a mother also) is one of the biggest happiness that a human being could have. Best wishes for everyone, Osmar (Father of an amazing smart one year old boy!!)
