I agree with one part: having children demands responsibility. People should think seriously before bringing lives into the world.
But I can’t agree that having children without money automatically means giving birth to criminals, beggars, or prostitutes. That is too harsh, and it is not true.
Poverty is hard, yes. It can wound dignity and limit options. But poverty is not a prophecy. A child born into a humble home is not born with a criminal destiny or loose life stamped on the forehead.
I came from a humble background myself, and all my siblings turned out successful — in fact, better grounded than some rich men’s children we knew while growing up. Money helps, no doubt. But money is not the only thing that raises a child. Values matter. Discipline matters. Love matters. Training matters.
It’s like planting seeds. Rich soil helps, but even simple soil can grow strong trees if it is tended well. And even fertile land can produce weeds if nobody cares for it.
The Bible says, “It is better to be poor and walk in integrity Than to be stupid and speak lies.” — Proverbs 19:1
That tells you clearly that poverty and wickedness are not the same thing.
So yes, let people be responsible. Let people plan. Let people count the cost.
But let us not insult the poor as if lack of money means lack of future. Some of the finest people in this world started with very little — except character, courage, and a home that refused to give up.
My take, though.
Stop having children if you have no money. You are giving birth to ashawo, criminals and beggars. There is no joy in suffering.
