kids bedroom ideas in india

I mean, me being only 17, how could I ever truly understand all the aspects of it, but lets all get real, there is a LOT of land and space that is not being used by humans, and "over-population" is in the FAR future. Especially with government-funded birth control and abortion now in America (but let me try to not impose my opinions).
I think people freak out about the idea too easily, honestly the way I see it, we'll be too other galaxies before we get over-crowded. The norm in America is a 2-kid family, that is a birth replacement rate of 1 to 1... so where's the problem? I know that countries like India and Africa contribute to population growth a lot more than the rest of the world, but forreal... there is way to much land for so few people to use it all up. When surface area grows thin, we'll all just build skyward, and glorious cities will cover the Earth... Farms will have multiple layers and anything anyone would ever need would be in THE SAME BUILDING that they live! The future is an exiting thing! Population growth is something to be excited for, not scared off. But that's my opinion, now please, tell me yours! I'm excited to hear it!
Peace and Love,
Sam
Answer
People are concerned about the rate of population growth, it's geometric which is natural for living organisms. For example, the population of bacteria doubles with each generation because the cells divide, this is a geometric increase but this also means a jar of jam goes from being half full to all full in just one generation then the bacteria dies of starvation. It also isn't the space that's a concern but the resources. In nature, this problem is solved by predation, disease and famine. We've effectively eliminated the first two but there's no clear indication we can avoid the third. Also the space that you're occupying isn't just your bedroom or your house but the space required to produce all the oxygen that you breath, to produce all the fruits, vegetables, grain, meats and dairy products you consume. How many acres of farmland does it take to feed you? What about your clothes and your iphone, what resources are required for those? If we built a glorious skyscraper, put people in them and sealed it up, we would have dead people, the skyscraper isn't all the land that's required.

Answer
Hello I'm Bengali Hindu from India and you may consider these tips:
1. Family values - when you visit his home, pay attention to his parents and full family as it's very well-appreciated. Assist his mother by making rounds to kitchen - this will give you a homely appeal and personalize things.
2. Bengalis are religious people (but not all of them e.g. me) - if they're Muslims they are bound to be even more - so you might have to pay courtesy to their specific customs e.g. touching the feet of elders,
3. Do not be over-affectionate towards your bf in the presence of his family - kissing, hugging etc.- and especially if kids are around - it may be interpreted as lewd and vulgar - keep your affections in your bedroom.
4. Talking about SEX is taboo - so are words like condoms etc. I know it sounds backward but if you can keep them private, it's good for you.
5. If it's a Hindu family, Beef is taboo - if Muslim, Pork. Even discussions on those subjects are not taken kindly. However, you may be asked if you are willing to give up these substances after marriage - give an answer after discussing with your bf.
Lastly, here is a list of useful Bengali langauge phrases that may come handy to you:
