Storyline (or key concept)

An extended family struggling to have a better life for their children future by sending the girls to school and by using FP methods properly.

A family who learns about the benefit of family planning based on the assumption that increased number of children causes scarcity of resource and unstable life.

How FP/ child spacing helps the mother to have time to beautify herself to her husband so that he does not go to another woman, proofing how child spacing helps a mother bring up an educated, healthy and wealthy child, confirming the opportunity child spacing gives a mother to empower herself and having happy family.
