In 2017, the new born population decreased by 630 thousand compared with the same period last year. Does childbirth crisis exist?
, three years before and after the birth of a child. Xiao ran, who is already 29 years old this year, although he is at a better childbearing age, has just been working in Shenzhen for a year. Xiao ran graduated from Communication University of China. Her boyfriend graduated from Xi'an Electronic and Science University. The two were stable and planned to get married in 2019. Xiao ran and her boyfriend were both masters, but now two people earn less than twenty thousand yuan a month.
the Spring Festival this year, Xiao ran returned to her boyfriend's hometown for the new year. The two people paid the round-trip fare and the meeting gift for their boyfriend's family. In February, Xiao Ran's 3 credit cards and ants spent a total of 18 thousand yuan.

1 month, the National Bureau of statistics published data, in 2017, our country was reduced by 630 thousand people than in 2016. Meanwhile, the number of births in 2017 was 7 million 240 thousand, a decrease of 2 million 490 thousand in 2016. One of the most important reasons for the decline in the birth population, especially the decline in the birth of one child, is that the number of women of childbearing age at 20~29 years of age in 2017 was reduced by nearly 6 million.
it is urgent to rebuild the social nurture service system
her boyfriend needs to pay $4600 a month. As the house has not been built, they are now renting, paying 3000 yuan per month, plus two people's daily expenses. Little ran, almost always a state of debt. Each month has to allow parents to subsidize one thousand or two thousand yuan. We can't afford to raise our own, how to raise the baby?
in the concept of Xiao ran, if living in a first tier city, if the family's monthly income is not enough 50 thousand yuan, raising children is very difficult. The idea of small Ran is not groundless. Yang Juhua, a professor of the center for population and development research at Renmin University of China and a researcher at the National Institute for development and strategic research, told the China Youth Daily, China Youth Daily, that the problem of raising children has not been paid much attention to. Burden, breeding is more difficult than life.
the country is now open to the two - child policy, but the absence of supporting support measures still makes many women dare not have children like small ran. Families and careers have become.Amp for many women; lsquo fish and bear's paw.Amp; rsquo, in Yang Juhua's view, the government should introduce measures to improve the fertility of these women as soon as possible, such as increasing childbirth allowance, extending paternity leave time and so on, in particular, to accelerate the pace of restoring the care service system.
Yang Juhua said at a seminar on the supply side reform of preschool education last year that the welfare of the social nurseries service system collapsed in the process of economic reform, and the cost of human reproduction was fully returned to the family. Problems such as difficulty and Tobangui are highlighted.
2016, the National Planning Commission commissioned the China Research Center for population and development in 10 cities to carry out a special survey on the care service of infants under 3 years of age. The survey showed that the respondents who exceeded the 1/3 showed the demand for care service. In fact, how many children are in the nursery institutions? It may all add up to around 4%, of which 0~1 are 1.8%, 1~2 are 1.5%, 2~3 are 7%. Yang Juhua said.
Yang Juhua explained: and now many nurturing institutions are.Amp; lsquo only teaches.Amp; rsquo, which means parents have to accompany their children to complete the.Amp that they can't do independently; lsquo operations.Amp; rsquo, which further aggravates the family's burdens. In addition, if these children are sent to nursery institutions, are children really safe and happy? Can parents really feel relieved? These questions are doubtful.
nearly 1/3 of full time mothers surveyed by the National Health Planning Commission were forced to discontinue employment because of children's unattended care; full time mothers surveyed over 3/4 said that if someone helped with their children, they would be reemployed. Yang Juhua also said to China Youth Daily, China Youth Online reporter: on the one hand, it is very contradictory to say that our country's labor force is insufficient and on the other hand it has to resign a large number of female labor forces to return to the family.
