China's One-Child Policy

To alleviate the effects of overpopulation, China instituted a one-child policy beginning in 1978. Under the family planning policy, urban couples are only allowed to have one child. The policy is still in effect today. China is the most populous country in the world with more than 1.3 billion citizens.

Why did china introduce the one child policy?

Asked by Wiki User

Because the population is increasing at a high rate, and there is a political reason inside. With a stabilized population, the GDP per capita will raise. Another economical reason is that China will export more agricultural products.

What does the future hold for the one child policy in china?

Right now, China's one child policy is reducing the population of China. It means that as the population ages, there will be fewer younger people to support the elderly. On the other hand, since China is turning the Western Half of the country into desert, it will be able to feed its reduced population with its reduced farmland.

Women are not considered important in China and many girl babies were killed After they were born. When a family can have only one child, many families choose to have boy babies. Too many males is bad, as it can really hurt the chances of a society maintaining it's population, and can lead to a lessening of the gene pool, and result in more birth defects.

To help reduce the population growth of the country.
• China needed to reduce pressure on resources. • In 1959 the average family had 7.5 children .

• Without the policy the population of china would increase to about 2 billion.

Why two child policy is necessary?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Two child policy is the best way to address our problem in over population. Sooner or later we'll run out of resources and this will cause conflict because a lot of people will compete on such limited resources.


Improvement and progress of living will going to be the advantage of 2 child policy.

What are the effects positive and negative of one child policy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Positive aspects.

· Families who only have one child get a 'one child glory certificate' which entitles them to an annual bonus on their salary up until the child is 14.

· Its good for population management

· Its decreased the population by over a half

· Families who stick to the policy will get HUGE bonuses.

Negative aspects.

· There is more men to women in china, therefore, that means less wives, less children(not a positive) because people are killing their daughters

· There are boys being kidnapped off the streets.

· A lot of girls are getting put up for adoption· If you are an only child, you are allowed to have two children (unfair and not helping the population much) because that's the same as the parent having two children in the first place and one giving birth

The children are becoming spoilt, like "little emperors"

What were the specific rules of the China's one child policy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Under China's one child policy, which was in place from 1979 to 2015, most couples were restricted to having only one child. There were exceptions, such as rural families allowed to have a second child if their first child was a girl. The policy was enforced through various measures, including financial penalties, employment consequences, and sometimes even forced abortions or sterilizations, particularly in the early years of implementation. The policy aimed to control population growth, alleviate pressure on resources, and promote economic development.

What are good reasons for china's one child policy?

Asked by Wiki User

Hello, I did a project on the one child policy recently and here are some interesting facts I came across:

•There are about 9.4 million girls in orphanages in China.

•Adoptions increased from about 2,000 in 1992 to 55,000 in 2001.

. There are 119 boys born for every 100 girls in China today, compared with 108.5 boys per 100 girls during the 1980s.

  • Right now, the Chinese leaders, are thinking about allowing families two children.
  • - Now, In the 21st century, if you are an only child, and you get married to another only child, you can have two children.

I hope you found this helpful..sorry about the layouts!
