I am speaking from experience here. as a student in UCH, i see a lot of women who shouldn't be having babies for one reason or the other(cancer.fibroid etc), still trying desprately to have kids, whereas, there are countless orphans on the street who would benefit drom having a good home. insteadof trying to help such, they still wanna give birth by force , in spite of all the consequences. personally, i think this is a bad attitude. what do u guys think?

The saddest part, is that these women don't usually have enough money to take care of their kids very well

Its not really the womans fault you know...naija men seem to want "thier own kids" and dnt seem to believe in adoption and if a woman can't have some use it as an excuse to cheat or pick a second wife. Its a cultural thing man!

I don't wanna comment on this because this guy did not take his time to write his topic properly. that's the same reason Nigerians like having kids, because after having one that is as stupid as you are, one would like to try again to have another one that's maybe not going to be stupid

I feel nigerians trying to have their own children and not adopting is more of a cultural issue cos am sure ur parents will neva smile at you settling for adopting a child just becos ur wife has fibroid or whatever condition without trying to make urs and even if u try and fail dey would rather you marrying anoda wife.The average nigerian woman is not considered fertile plus her position as a wife or as a member of that family is not considered "secure" till she bears her own child, U know how e dey be na abi no be naija u dey. However,the level of education of the parties involed also determines what u get at the end of the day.
