True. parents should do birth spacing so that children don't have to take care of other children. Personally i am a victim. I used to carry my younger sister nikiwa class four. Natoka shule, naenda kumchukua from my mum's work station, nambeba na mgongo hadi home which was a long distance. Nikifika kwa hao nimpikie and nifanye everything hadi mum akam home. Things are better now coz am grown up and have my own job but i feel that i was being a parent when i was supposed to be a kid. And for that reason i only want one child.
