In my opinion, I think the idea of statutory 'one' child families is barbaric, especially when mothers 'accidentally' become pregnant & know immediately that the baby either has to be aborted, adopted or left to die in the sreet (as newspapers showed some time back). For some it's nice to have a sibling or two, but to have this option taken away from you & your parents is very cruel. Is this why so many Chinese people want to leave their country of birth I wonder?
