| Scenario |
Your
mother will inform you that she is pregnant, but you are a very
poor family and how you will be able to afford another child is
a serious matter. Though another brother or sister can bring a lot
of joy in your sad world. |

news of another child in the family is wonderful, you are the eldest
and you'd be happy to raise this child. You have a job and be happy
to help this child grow up as if it is your own. |
| Student

You
are the second eldest and your main concern is whether it is a boy
or a girl. A boy can help build a better house or can get a job
when he is a bit older and help the family. If it is going to be
a girl she won't be able to help the family. |
| Student

Whether
the new child is a girl or a boy, this means you won't be able to
go to university. The money the family has saved will now be spent
on the new child and your dreams will be shattered. It also means

get a good job. |
