Very true.
Someone I know helped collect info during the last census. You know, door-to-door let me help you fill your form in kinda thing. Anyway, I was AMAZED that a considerable number of people are still have children in double figures. Many are also illiterate. I can't remember the exact figure but it is humiliating even when compared to other so-called developing countries.

These people tend to live in the rural communities you referred to. No birth control, very little information (or capacity to take the information in/follow advice). Coupled with no TV etc to pass the time, leaving sex as the main form of 'entertainment' we still have a big problem which is not going to disappear overnight.

Where is the government money to have a massive drive in the rural communities?
