    1. excerpts translated:

      > There are times when she also does some farm work: she weedes, rakes, and levels the garden. She receives 6,000 drams a day for her work. “I work very quickly to catch up with my children. I come quickly so that I don’t waste the day,” says the mother of 6 children.

      >There are days when there is no work. Those are the hardest times for the couple. They are forced to borrow food from the store, and when they do have work, they barely buy food for the children with the 6 or 7 thousand drams they receive. And they pay the debt in installments of 1,000 or 2,000 drams, because they have no other option. They owe the stores for food.

      >Last year, Greta had her heart probed. **They say that 1.5 million drams was needed to install a device in her heart, but they didn’t have that much money.**

      > “For more than a year, I have had to take my children to the doctor. I work, buy food, come, say, let’s save 500 drams to take them to the hospital, then I say, ‘Well, if I go to the hospital, how am I going to buy bread?’ That’s how it was,” says the mother of 6 children.

      >When the mother is home, she does lessons and drawings with the children. Her husband says that if they have a house, they will live off their work.

      For those in *awe* and shock as to why Armenians in Armenia refuse to have big families. This family is experience all critical issues the government has failed to address.

      1- benefits.

      2- universal healthcare. And crushing medical debt.

      3- Housing problem.

      Will the kids of these families live healthy lives? No.

      Will the parents live good lives? No.

      All there issues can be solved in a matter of a year. Many countries have solved this in matter of months or weeks.

      When people say the government is failing its farmers, and its lowest classes, this is what they mean.

      Rather, people here would pretend that funding the archaic child bearing process (rather than providing free socialized healthcare for potential parents) who is using the emotions of families who have lost a loved one, is the “option to make Armenia stronger and better”???

      We clearly have an excess of money, which is not being used, but god forbid this is an actual conversation.

      Nooo, Gago needs to build his Jesus statue. How can we take care of those children? Where are we gonna get the money from? Bless your heart Jesus will provide for the children you will bear to die.

      The father and mother are probably not working enough.
