For decades, the world has been told that population control methods are necessary to prevent overpopulation and resource depletion. But is this narrative entirely accurate? While some approaches to family planning can empower individuals, others have crossed ethical boundaries, leading to forced sterilizations and coercive tactics—especially in vulnerable communities.

The reality is, many population control methods have been implemented without informed consent, often ignoring human dignity and basic rights. It's important to understand the difference between voluntary family planning and programs that pressure or force people into decisions they wouldn't otherwise make.

Instead of limiting human life, we should be focusing on sustainable development, education, and healthcare—solutions that uplift people rather than suppress them. People are not the problem; they are the solution.
