ABSTRACT
The study was carried out with the aim of investigating the effect of insurance and societal effects of child mortality on the attitudes and practices towards family planning in an urban and a rural settlings in Alexandria governorate. The data were collected through a questionnaire interview. The sample was a purposive sample of 600 women, half of it from an urban area and the other half from a rural area. Each sample was classified into women who had experienced child loss of at least one among the first 3 live births [at least 100 women] and women without child loss as a control group [to complete the sample to 300]. The study revealed that child mortality leads to high fertility attitudes and practices in both areas as evidenced by positive insurance and societal effects
