Discussion of octamum vs China's one-child policy

Today in Humanities, we discussed what we preferred: octumum vs China's one-policy. We mostly choose somewhere in the middle because we thought that people should make their own choices for having how many ever children but we also thought that maybe the population would overflow just in one place (if that's where how many ever children have been born). We also thought about how many children the government should allow one couple should have. Maybe the maximum should be 5 or 6 and the minimum should be no children. I think that we should be able to have as many children as we like as long as we are able to take care of them, able to handle it and to give them the all the same amount of love they all need ( which I think is impossible to give 14 kids).
