The plan was meant to balance (平衡) population development and stop a falling birth rate (出生率).China started the onechild policy in the 1980s. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some families in the countryside could have two children, if the firstborn child is a girl. In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.Jiang Quanbao, a population expert, explained how Chinese families react to the newest policy. “Lots of young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child,” he said.At the end of 2014, China had a population of billion people.
