People should have larger families, it helps the kids be sociable and interdependent

Maybe for some, but as one of eight siblings, I quickly learned to take care of myself!! Mom was always busy with one of the toddlers, Dad worked three jobs, so I had to be self-sufficient! Plus, I learned to get the most out of a limited amount of resources. Like strategically planning my next shower - there was only one bathroom in the house, and we all had to compete for it! Seriously though, it was not a pampered upbringing - but it did help me to develop some important skills for later on in life.

A lot of the problems we're dealing with are in part the result of raising generations of spoiled children. The lack of a work ethic, and the entitlement mentality for example.
