In 1979, China introduced it’s one-child policy in order to decrease the nation’s rapidly growing population rate. Couples of the Han Chinese ethnicity were not allowed to raise more than one child. In this article, I will argue that China’s one-child policy was a good idea because it lowered the pollution rate and allowed more space for families, provided better opportunities for women, and supplied young adults with better futures.

In Document D of China’s One-Child Policy Mini Q, the author states, “Their parent’s only treasure, since the 1980s single daughters in China’s cities have enjoyed privileged child hoods with little different from their male counterparts.” Since some couples have only managed to produce females, these females are given lush lives with everything they would ever need. Also, there is no competition between brothers or sisters, giving the daughters freedom and more resources. In Document D, it the passage also states, “some of the hottest and best paying jobs in today’s globalizing social service economy are open exclusively to young women.” There is now a surplus of women in China, so females aren’t turned down from job opportunities. They often receive excellent jobs that they don’t have to compete with against men. Since China’s one-child policy, females are given outstanding opportunities that they wouldn’t have even dreamed about twenty years
