Kids Health In Armenia, Wow the abortion rate Options

[arrow]

Armenia has a high abortion rate -- 2.7 abortions per woman. Due to the lack of contraceptives and effective family planning information and services, abortion remains the primary means of fertility control in Armenia. The government report refers to these statistics, but states that, although higher than in most Western countries, the rate is the lowest among the other newly independent states. According to IWRAW sources, the government does not promote any programmes which would aim at improving the quality of family planning services.

NGOs also report on the poor condition of prenatal services. As a result, there has been a considerable increase in the incidence of anaemia in pregnant women in recent years, as well as deficiencies in breast-feeding, and other related health problems. As women's health deteriorates, the children are born weaker. Also, our sources report that, contrary to the government's official claims, malnutrition affects increasing numbers of children under the age of 5 years old.



This is serious. Instead of talking hate someone should do something about these numbers. 2,7 abortions per women is hell. Someone should start handing out free condoms

I think it is possible in today's world. With all the moral values diminshing and the age of sex going as low as 12 years old it is possible. And in strict sociaties the yonly thing you get is illegal abortions and more deaths.
