Developing Countries: Birth Control?

I was having a chat with a particular member who stated that people in developing (they used the term "third world") countries should not have children they cannot support. They did not state that they believed any laws should be passed or anything of that sort. They just stated that they felt it to be morally wrong.I would like to disagree with that statement, and open it up for debate. I think that all people have the same moral rights when it comes to having children. It is their choice, and they can exercise the right if they wish. I would also like to point out that a well fed child in America does a lot more damage to the world than an entire community of starving babies in Africa. If my information is wrong, please someone correct me Maybe social issues, or coffee house?J0N
