Ecologically individuals who exist in harsh and unpredictable environments produce more offspring to increase the chances of survival of their offspring ie at least some of the young ones will survive to adulthood and pass on the genes. In stable environments fewer offspring are produced since survival is assured.

This reminds me about something else - ie shouldnt Obama try getting a son to carry on the family name before Mitchell reaches menopause - that is hoping she hasn't yet.

One of the best, if not the best, strategies to lower birth rates is to take our girls to school and keep them there. An educated lady will be better able to decide if and when to have kids and how many. As well, the mere fact of education itself delays onset of child-bearing.
Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

Poor in society sleep early as they don't have access to power, and hence entertainment in the house.

A major source of entertainment then is lungula = many children. Add that to getting married at 18 village girls vs 30 for Nairobi career women.
