Oh Ok well now I am a bit wiser on that issue.
I had never thought much about it until chatting to you.

I can understand why they did it but I would have hated to be an only child.
My eldest son only had one child and I know Maddi my Grandaughter would have loved a brother or sister but it never happened.

1979 it became law but was advocated as a sensible idea for about 5 years before.It is not strictly enforced among minority ethnic groups NO NOT ALL CHINESE ARE THE SAME and farmers who are allowed more if the first is a girl.Contraceptives are free and supplied at the workplace by the company nurse.Accidents can be terminated or the parents pay a large fine to keep the child They are not FORCED to terminate.

Daff
How long has it been since the Chinese only allow one child per family?

What happens if you have an accident and have more than one. I have often wondered. Or do they have to have an operation to stop them having children?.
