Government and Family Cut Down
When we say a country is overpopulated, we say that such a country does not have the ability or resources to cater to the population it has. I'm another way, and hem you a country could cater for its citizens in all ways, and when the resources of able to round up to the citizens living in it, then such a country is not overpopulated.
Cutting down or reducing the population can only be possible when the government joins hands to make things easy in the country.
Let's take China, for instance. some years back, they were overpopulated just because their resources were not able to cater to their citizens. The government decided to bring up a one-child policy, which the effect for some time. This policy worked for few periods, but they began to encounter some difficulties.
One of the difficulties encountered is the "workforce".
Their workforce began to reduce to the lowest minimum. They began to experience so many setbacks in terms of the workforce. Their military was not increasing; instead was stagnant and even reducing.
The issue was that their plans towards cutting down their population worked, but they were in another way suffering drastically for it.
The government had to call back his words after a few years and said those that are willing to give birth more than one should relocate closer to the farming suburbs. Majority did that and this boost their workforce as those in the farming suburbs began to farm, making food available for the country at large.

So, I believe that the government providing incentives for those who are ready to give birth for more than usual should be catered for and should also have a way of giving back to the government in one way or the other. Giving back to the government means working to support the economy of that country. This will boost the world force and workload of the country involved.
Nigeria, for instance is a country filled with so many people, both the poor average, the rich and the average. Nigeria is seemed to be over populated country, but to my little idea, we are not as well have all it takes to maintain or manage the people in it. The only thing we have to bear in mind is that, we have so many people who are ready to take what does not belong to them by themselves. They are ready to make people (the citizens suffer), thinking we are overpopulated.
The government should make people (the citizens) cut down the way they give birth. This can reduce the country's burden to some extent.
There is one small country that does not have enough space. Even though, they lack enough space, the dwellers are still giving birth to children. This made them crowded and the way they built their houses are just tiny.
Sometimes, restricting citizens on the number of children they give birth to is vital as this may save space in the nation.
The government can only provide incentives to those who are capable of giving birth to more than the usual children. They should be informed about the consequences and should be given incentives to cater for their needs. When this is done, the government should give them a task to carry out which will benefit the government and themselves. This will make things easier in the lives of those who are ready to have more kids.
The policy to reduce the popular by control of child both has it limitations too like lower woke force, especially in military, health,farming and other important sectors.
That's it.
It's funny how china went from fighting overpopulation to fighting underpopulation 😅
It helped them, but they began to crumble until they turned to their normal way but with rules.
