Zheng Bingwen, an expert from the Academy of Social Sciences, mentioned in a lecture that the main reason why young people are afraid to have children now comes from various pressures in life, such as education, pension, medical care, etc. He pointed out that this phenomenon is understandable, but young couples should seize the validity period of childbearing, and despite the difficulties, there is still a long way to go in life. Experts suggest that young people can borrow the strength of relatives and friends when facing temporary difficulties, because the stage of childbearing is very short, and there is no turning back after the age.
However, Zheng Bingwen's remarks have been widely controversial. Many netizens believe that he is detached from real life and has no real understanding of the plight of young people. His view is that difficulties are temporary and can be solved with the help of relatives and friends, but many people do not share this view. They say that in real life, the issues involved in raising children far outweigh the temporary difficulties. In addition to the investment of money and energy, there are also expenses such as education and medical care. Therefore, although childbearing is a limited window of time, not all young couples can easily borrow the power of relatives and friends.
Zheng Bingwen's remarks caused heated discussions among netizens, who had different opinions on the experts' views. Some netizens were angry and helpless about the expert's remarks, and they ridiculed: "Such an excellent and courageous expert is really rare, you will be my uncle in the future, and now borrow 100,000 yuan to respond to the emergency." "It is difficult to raise a baby and ask relatives for help, and the relatives of the poor are poorer than the other. These comments reflect the antipathy and dissatisfaction of ordinary people with the statements of experts.
Other netizens expressed their thoughts on this issue at a deeper level. They point out that the poor simply have relatives to help, and only the rich will have relatives who are willing to help. They see childbearing as not just a temporary hardship, but a lifelong responsibility. Netizens used their personal experiences to explain the difficulties of raising children, from the ** of myopia, investment in education, finding a job, buying a house, etc., all require huge expenses and energy investment. They questioned whether the experts' views corresponded to reality.
The reasons why young people are afraid to have children mentioned by expert Zheng Bingwen are only superficial, and the deeper reasons are more complex. There are many practical problems behind the reluctance of young people to have children. First of all, the pressure of education, medical care, etc., is a huge burden for young couples. The uneven distribution of educational resources makes young parents anxious. At the same time, the high cost of medical care also discourages them.
Secondly, economic instability is also one of the important reasons why young people are reluctant to have children. Job instability, high housing prices, and low income growth all leave young people feeling confused and powerless. They are afraid to raise their children in such an environment and are afraid of bringing more hardship to their children.
Finally, changes in socio-cultural attitudes are also factors influencing young people's willingness to have children. While the traditional concept emphasizes the responsibility of the family, modern society attaches more importance to the freedom and development of the individual. Young people want to have more time and energy to devote to their careers and interests, rather than being tied down by family responsibilities.
To sum up, the problem of young people not daring to have children can not be solved simply by word of mouth. This problem must be tackled at its roots, including in education, health care, economic instability, and so on. At the same time, it is also necessary to respect the right of individuals to make free choices, and young people should not be forced to give birth. The views and recommendations of experts should be closer to reality, understanding the real plight of young people, so as to better propose solutions.
