Short answer - if your priority is climbing out of poverty, you really shouldn't squander your finances that way. But the reason most folks are poor and stay poor is that they make poor choices.
Because more kids mean more hands and in one way or the other more income. Weather it is in money from government, weather it is work of some sort or even begging on the street. It is basically the only investment a poor person can make sort to say.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
