It is a sad situation, but I am in complete agreement with what you stated. Something has to be done to counter overpopulation in many areas of the world.

no. they force you to abort if you have more than one child. if its born, well you get a big fine

though rural families only want boys so some of them will do what you said

"In addition, the continuing preference for sons has resulted in selective abortion and sometimes infanticide of baby-girls, causing a skewed male-female ratio in the general population."

It is hard to imagine what form of population control could allow China?s current program to be called "milder" by comparison. A nuclear strike might not kill as many people as China?s population program does. The suggestion that female infanticide is something that occurs only "sometimes" as a result of this program is equally ludicrous.

In March, the State Department released its own annual report on human rights in China. This report did some soft-pedaling, too, but is packed with facts painting a grim picture of the Holocaust for Little Girls the Chinese Communists have created.

"Female infanticide, sex selective abortions, the abandonment of little girls, and the neglect of baby girls remain problems due to the traditional preference for sons, and the family planning policy, which limits urban couples to one child and rural couples to two," reported State.

"Estimates from previous years indicate a very high percentage of pregnancies terminated are of female fetuses," said State. "Female babies also suffer from a higher mortality rate than male babies, contrary to the worldwide trend."

sorry should have focused on the importnat parts. it just made me doubt the credibility a little but i guess that's moot b/c the problem is obviously not that small... hoefully it'll improve as modernization efforts are in progress. would take a while though 🙁

A lot of countries would be better off with such laws.

I have to agree. But I think 2 children per family should be more reasonable.

nope. u can probably bribe off an official anyways. in rural areas its pretty much ignored.

i remember one rich family man talk about it on frontline. he had two kids, no one cared. his justification? too many idiots breeding, he's gotta help out the population with some good stock🙂 haha, well he was rich😛

the one child rule only applies to the first generation. that one child will be allowed to have 2.
 
Blame it on the one child policy.

Blame it on the reactionary one child policy in China... not Communisim.

China is currently running under the reactionary ideology.

Communism was temporarily depressed ever since Mao died in 1976.

It is the reactionaries that promote the backward ideology. Not Communism.

Get your facts straight.
