Why do some rural people have two or three children when they are poor?

Coming from rural areas, my opinion is that parents in rural areas do not attach much importance to their children's education, and basically think that learning is a school matter. If you don't study well, let alone high school. Many of my classmates went out to work in junior high school.

Others may have a little foundation at home and start a small company or something. When chatting back home, I especially like to say that the person recruited by his company graduated from college. After graduating from college, they still work for him, and it is useless to go to school. I can see such relatives every year when I go home for the New Year, and I can't spit them out.

The most important thing is that rural areas pay more attention to the wealth of family members, and the situation of son preference is still relatively serious. If the husband is a daughter, even if he is fined, he will have two children and three children.

If there is only one daughter in the family, she will be said to be homeless. It's hard to hear. The first time I heard that there was only a daughter but no son in the family, it was particularly uncomfortable.

When I was a child, a relative at home chatted and said that our family was still very rich. All the uncles' children are boys except me and another girl.
