     For Chinese people what is the advantage of having many children? They

provide many hands to work and ensure that the land will be worked when the

parents are old.

That is why in 1972 the Chinese government decided to implant the "wan xi shao"

family planning program. This program allowed families to have no more than two

children. By the late seventies apparently the Chinese population was still

growing. Thus in 1979 the government formed a new policy that allowed families

to have no more than one child. Because of this program it is known that women

who give birth to daughters are abused by their husbands for not having a boy.
