原文:
Poverty affects population growth. To many of the poor, having more children is a matter of survival. Their children help them gather fuel (mostly wood and animal dung), haul drinking water, and tend crops and livestock. The children also help care for them in their old age (which is their 40s or 50s in the poorest countries) because they do not have social security, health care and retirement funds.
翻譯:
貧困影響人口增長。對大多數窮人來說，有很多的小孩是個生存的問題。他們的小孩幫助他們收集燃料(主要是木頭和動物的糞便)，拖運飲用水，並且照管莊稼和家畜。那些小孩也在他們老年的時候照顧他們(在一些貧困的國家，當大人在40歲~50歲的時候)因為他們沒有社會保險，健康保險和退休金。
