No, because... most of these family planning programs do not work since they are designed so that educated/literate people understand them and the people they are really geared towards do not.
Thus the population explosion in the poorer strata of developing countries. If poor people have more poor kids then poverty exponentially spikes and we all have more problems.
Good intentions; horrible consequences.
IF these population control programs were not ubiquitously distributed in literature(mostly written in English) and instead distributed in the form of movies in local languages aired(with a handy-dandy projector) in poverty stricken overpopulated areas/regions then they might work:
However, it is absurd to think that this simple obvious solution will magically ever be implemented, since it hasn't already. :O
The practical solution to the problem therefore, is that people who are well-off/rich/affluent have as many children as they want(to even out; the rich to poor ratio), who will have(coming from privileged homes) bright futures.
