Answer 1

Women have more rights and economic opportunities. More education. More contraceptives and abortion. Lower mortality rates. In Somalia for instance, 10% of babies die. In a developed country it is less than 1%. A lot of undeveloped countries are very agrarian so having more kids to help at the house is good.
