The three-child policy did not work well, and the state took action, and from December, village cadres began to charge fees
New initiatives to reduce the birth rate.
Now that I have a child, the financial burden is even heavier. While the cost of living grows in both urban and rural areas, so does the cost of education, health care, parenting, etc., which will inhibit the choice of more than one family. Especially in urban areas, the high cost of living has caused greater financial pressure. In addition, due to the uneven distribution of educational resources in China, there are many more high-quality educational resources in urban areas than in rural areas, which is also an important factor for some families to be reluctant to have more children. Therefore, although it is now advocated to have three children, there are still many families who are reluctant to cross this threshold. To this end, China has introduced a new household registration system, which completely separates hukou, schooling, employment, etc. from the birth status of individuals, so as to alleviate the pressure of family fertility. The aim is to encourage more families to have three or more children, thus promoting a long-term balance.
The village cadres arbitrarily apportioned the money, increasing the burden on the public.
However, while a new measure of "three children" has been introduced, not everyone will do it. One of the main reasons for this is economic pressure. Raising a child is hard enough, and if you have another one, it will be even worse. This is especially true for villages with low incomes and uncertain agricultural incomes. In addition, urbanization has caused a shortage of educational resources in rural areas, and high-quality compulsory education resources are not enough in limited primary schools, coupled with continuous education investment costs, so that many parents are worried about having three or three children. However, in order to promote the full implementation of the three children, since December last year, the township health centers have been responsible for collecting "medical insurance fees", which has brought more economic pressure to rural families.
The payment level of NCMS has increased year by year, and the compensation rate has gradually increased.
The new rural cooperative medical system is a new type of medical insurance system with farmers as the main body. In recent years, the payment level of NCMS in China has increased year by year, and the compensation rate of medical insurance has gradually increased. This year, the burden per person is 380 yuan, the subsidy per person is 640 yuan, and the total amount of medical insurance for urban and rural residents is 1,020 yuan. This shows that the coverage of NCMS in China is gradually expanding, and the compensation rate is rising. In the past, the compensation rate of NCMS was relatively low, so the cost of medical treatment for rural households was still very high. However, due to the continuous improvement of the new rural cooperative medical system and the continuous adjustment of policies, the compensation rate in some areas has reached more than 70%, and supplementary medical insurance has been implemented in some places, so that the compensation rate has been further improved. In addition, the new rural cooperative medical system has diversified payment forms, so that rural households can make appropriate contributions according to their own financial resources, so as to improve the flexibility of insurance participation.
Along with the financial burden of the family, reflections and expectations for rural families.
Overall, financial pressures, quality of life, educational resources, and an aging population have made us cautious about having three or more children. In poor families, it can be difficult to have one child, let alone three or more. In this process, it is necessary to increase subsidies for low-income families and give them more subsidies so that they can live better. At the same time, the whole society should work together to increase investment in educational resources, raise the level of social welfare security, create a good birth conditions for rural families, reduce their economic pressure, and encourage them to have more children, so as to promote the long-term balanced development of China's population.
Regarding the "three children" and "village two committees" spending money indiscriminately, I think that having a child at home should be a person's independent decision and cannot be forced. Although the state has adopted a series of supportive policies, the financial difficulties still cannot be ignored. Especially in rural areas, because they are very financially poor, it is difficult to afford to raise multiple children. In addition, the practice of village groups charging fees is on the one hand to promote the full implementation of the three children, and on the other hand, it also increases the financial pressure on some families. Therefore, in view of this problem, I believe that the state should pay attention to the economic situation of rural residents, give more financial support and welfare guarantees, reduce the burden on peasants, and ensure their basic living needs. Only in this way, under the guidance of the two-child policy, the family's autonomy and independent choice can become a reality.
