The reason many die in childbirth is that access to healthcare is sporadic at best, and in some Islamic countries women are denied heathcare all together. Many women in the third World have no choice because they have no power. Education is the only thing that will save them in the long run, but like access to healthcare, access to education is not a right for women.
Finally, to refer to them as "breeding" likens them to animals.

I think knowledge is power, it is like teaching a child not to touch things that are hot they get burned. I think these women should have pse lessons like in primary schoool and comprehensive schools. If they are given the education they will perhaps take means of contraception. What is the bets if things dont change they will be in the same boat, ten years down the line.
