Education is expensive.
From kindergarten to university, children's education costs snowball, and every family is facing enormous economic pressure. Although compulsory education is free, the extra-long classes and tuition and fees are still very expensive. The cost of high school and college is soaring, and it is no small challenge for every family to raise children.
A heavy burden of medical expenses
If there are seriously ill patients in the family, even if there is medical insurance reimbursement, it may make the family bankrupt and even bear debts. Therefore, many elderly people choose to scrimp and save money for emergencies, especially in the face of illness, hoping to reduce the burden for their children.
Pensions are difficult to meet demand.
For most elderly people, the monthly pension of 100 yuan is far from meeting the needs of life. Therefore, many 70-year-old people still have to run for their lives, which makes people feel distressed and helpless.
High housing prices, high bride price and other issues.
In addition to the above pressures, young people are also facing problems such as high housing prices and high bride price. In rural areas, many older young men find it difficult to get married because of economic pressure; In cities, many older young women find it difficult to find suitable partners.
Solve the fundamental problems and encourage fertility.
If we want to encourage young people to have a second or third child, we can't just rely on the monthly subsidy from 500 yuan. We need to fundamentally solve the problems of education, medical care and old-age care, so that young people can see the hope of childbirth and the guarantee of the future. Only in this way will they consider expanding the family size and giving their children a happy growth environment.
