population growth

With an annual growth rate of 2.04 percent, the country's population is expected to hit 94 million this year, according to the Commission on Population. Faced with a high growth rate our nation's resources must be sufficient enough to meet the demands of the population.

One of the factors that leads to the growth of population was early parenting of our youth today. They are prone of getting married at their young age because of unwanted pregnancy. Why is that happening? I saw a pedicab and it has a placard saying "Lustfullness destroys studies." About 35 percent of the youth have insufficient knowledge and unaware of the consequences about having a family that add up to the booming of population.

The main hope of a nation lies in the proper education of its youth. One reason the youth of today are so poor at this basic life fact, of course, is that as a society we have not bothered to make sure every person is taught the essentials of handling emotions and or resolving conflicts of life.
