mostly, i thought this article was surreal. the childbearing policies in China dictate that urban residents may produce one child, and more rural residents of China may have two children. in light of the lives lost by the recent earthquake, the Chinese government has decided to allow parents that have faced a decrease in their children allowance can receive assistance to replace their lost child. this includes assistance with in-vitro fertilization.while it feels very foreign to me the idea of limiting the number of children a family may generate, it is estimated that the policy has prevented 400m births. with a potential energy crisis and fears of overpopulation further down the horizon, i can't say that it hasn't made me think.
