One child policy

Look at the family structure in China and discuss on the blog the possible effects it has on the Chinese Society. 

Firstly, it can increase the food supply. With lesser people, there will be more food for people to consume and the demands for it will be lower. Secondly, it can result in more resources for children development. When there's lesser children, the country can afford to give the children better resources for their education such as laptops to facilitate their learning. Thirdly, there will be better health care for families. Since there's lesser people, the funds allocated can be used to improve the facilities since the funds wouldn't have to be used on buying new equipment unless there's a rapid increase in population. The equipment would be up to standard since there is enough funds to upgrade it. Fourthly, there will be an increase in saving rate since 

an average family expands fewer resources due to fewer children. Lastly, it reduces unemployment. With lesser children, there will be more jobs available for everyone since there is a decrease in population and thus, everyone would be able to make more money which helps to boost their country's economy. They  would also have a higher standard of living, which is a win-win situation for both China and their people. 

In conclusion, these are the effects the One Child Policy has on the Chinese society.

One child policy 👶

  Have you every wondered how China's one child policy affects the chinese society? The one child policy was introduced in 1979 so as to ease social, economic and environmental problems in china. After the policy was introduced, the fertility rate in China sharply decreased from 2.63 births per woman in 1980 to 1.61.

  The extra 9.5 million people born each year will need food, water, and housing. As per capita arable land in China is half of the global average and 40 percent of that  is considered less economical or uneconomical to farm, there might not be enough water for everyone, causing a strain on natural resources.
