    Honestly the reason why we get so many children is because there’s poor sexual education and free contraceptives, plus abortion not being legal and also massive propaganda since centuries ago by the church to make people reproduce like rabbits.

      This is incorrect. People make a rational calculation: if children are likely to die before adulthood, they have more children to compensate. In every country and culture around the world, as income and security increase, family size levels off to merely replacement levels. You think people are having too many kids? Fix it by raising everyone’s standard of living.
