    The document discusses the concept of development and compares more developed and less developed countries. It defines development and notes that more developed countries, like the UK, will have higher GNI per capita and lower birth rates. These indicators show that people in more developed nations earn more money, so children are an economic cost rather than help, and families can afford to have fewer children. The document contains tasks comparing photos of housing, jobs, transportation, and shopping between high and low income countries to analyze differences.
