title: [Average number of living children of the members of parliament].
abstract: "This study compares the average number of living children of the members of the parliament [in Turkey] with the average number of living children of the general public as found in the 1988 Population and Health Survey.  The findings indicate that the average number of living children of the members of the parliament [is] substantially lower than that of the general public.  Under the light of these findings the members of the parliament are invited not to refrain from speeches promoting family planning in Turkey." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
