Does it really show love towards your partner, if you give him/her a big future financial burden? Also: does it show love towards the prospective child to give him birth into a family where it will suffer of the poverty?

That's implying that you "give" a child as a "surprise" when you are living with a partner.
Accidents being the exception, having a child is a huge decision. Especially if you are quite poor.
I have no idea what your personal experience of life is, nor your background. But you seem to have some skewed vision of life if you believe that "these people" shouldn't "produce children" as if the poor were not even humans.
Poor people have children for the same reasons rich people do. The only exception being that there are less gifts at christmas.
