POPULATION EDUCATION AND FAMILY PLANNING

Instruction: Answer the question below in essay form of not more than 300 words.
Question: Looking forward to marriage and raising a family, why is population education and family
planning important for you personally. Explain your answer briefly but thoroughly.

The absence of family planning, which leads to overpopulation, can be the source of poverty
in a society. Teenage pregnancy is quite common, and one of the reasons for this is a lack of
appropriate family planning and population education. As someone who plans to marry and start a
family, I want to think about a lot of things before making a decision. Youth, in my opinion, requires
some direction because the majority of them are lost on their way. Personally, I have acquaintances
who were compelled to start a family due to early pregnancy, and they regret that their education
was harmed as a result. I understand that I will be confronted with marriage and the duty of raising a
family, but I must ensure that I am psychologically and emotionally prepared for these
responsibilities. Because this will be a lifelong responsibility, it is a decision that demands good
knowledge.
