There may be other reasons that have to do with cultural implications as well when it comes to population / fertility growth. Some people in LDNs may have religious reasons for not wanting to use birth control and may have major issues with abortion. In DNs, most women go to college, they have a career, they put off marriage, and when they do decide to get married, they may have one or two children. However, in LDNs, women may marry quite early, sometimes as early as fourteen, and may believe that having as many children as possible is what life is about. There are so many cultural factors in LDNs that people in DNs are unaware of. It's interesting to note that in some countries in Europe especially, the government is actually trying to promote pregnancies because of the slow population growth rate.

The GNI PPP / capita of Bangladesh is $1,1980 while the United States is $39,710. There is an association between GNI PPP and female literacy and fertility. In the United States, female literacy is 99% while in Bangladesh it is 31.4% and the U.S.'s total fertility rate is 2.0 while Bangladesh is 3.0 (p. 151).

To deal with both attrition and ethnicity factors in conjunction with an adolescent or school-aged client, the counselor may be well advised to consider the fact that the client may better benefit from a school counselor's intervention rather than from her own.

Military in Less Developed Countries From archaeological records, we can tell that warfare and aggression have been part of human history for thousands of years. Since the rise of urbanization about 5,000 years ago, war has been part of most every civilization. One source, in fact, notes: " . . . 14,500 wards have taken place between 3500 BC and the late 20th century, killing 3.5 billion people and leaving
Agriculture and less developed nations. There is one reference used for this paper. There are many issues facing underdeveloped nations today. It is important to examine if these countries should give up their agriculture sector in order to become a well developed nation.
