Besides the issue of saving money, with spacing it would help you reduce the work load. I am not married yet so i do not have children yet, but i do see how most mothers struggle to attend to all of them. It can be very demanding and stressful training up one not to mention one that one around the same age range.

You are right it is not easy at all when you don't space them. It is financially and emotionally demanding

Wrong. "Schooling" is getting expensive. The education is free.

In my country school is free for all students, even books are offered by the government, the only things we need to pay is meals and some extras that are needed (some students don't even pay for this as their parent's income is low).

Child's spacing should be taken seriously especially in Africa. The economy is not ideal at all for more children

Giving your kids enough gap years will make it easier for you to focus on each one of them. You will also minimize your spending.

Taking care of kids is becoming a very expensive thing now. Essentials for babies are very. costly as such it is good to adopt measures that will help you save even when you have them. One of such method is by spacing the kids. So that all the essentials that was used by the previous child will he used by the new child and huge amount will be saved.

You can effectively do the spacing with the advice from your health personnel.

It is a very good way to space and plan having kids if you want to have Long term financial freedom. Kids don't listen to excuses when they need things and you would have to spend. Spacing them reduces the financial pressure.

You are very right about this, kids won't understand and will always want you to provide anytime any day, I also understand this while growing up.

You can space child appropriately by using or enrolling for family planning.

Having kids nowadays has to be something that you are intentional about. You should understand that every child would consume your finances.

That is why I always advocate that couples talk about things like these. You have to determine what you want from the first week of courtship. I have agreed with my fiancee already on the number of kids and the timing they are coming.

These days many don't want to have children. They start a family when they think they are financially stable. I have seen many young couples going for adoption these days. This would be a personal choice. But I guess that along with doing a noble job of providing a loving family to the Child who needs it, you also save money. Pregnancy and childbirth also need a lot of care and money.

I see no reason why couples may choose not having a child of their own and prefer adoption except on medical related issues, you can't compare n adopted child to a real child ..

[Pistis]

I don't believe in having children anyhow but some couples complain that it is morally wrong to use contraceptive with a lawfully married wife. That's why they end up having children without spacing.

[Yohanna]

It is quite expensive to take care of the kids and if you ensure appropriate child spacing, it will save you some amount of money.

[Kenti]

Child spacing would save you from financial pressure. If you have children too close apart, you would be buying things and meeting same needs doubly.
