**Document No. 1: Do you want children to be a problem? Where is the voice of the people?
Introduction: With the first document to encourage rural fertility policy,"Do you want to have children"It has become a hot topic in society. On this issue, there has been a big change in the perception of young people, especially young people around the age of 30, who are more selective"Don't get married, don't have children"lifestyle. Faced with this phenomenon, many people have begun to pay attention to people's voices, is it the social environment that has caused this situation, or is it personal choice that has led to this result? Let's take a look at these details and arguments.
The condition of older singles.
According to reports, the number of singles in China is currently more than 2400 million, with 42 million older singles, a significant proportion of whom may not be able to find a lifelong partner. For example, a 36-year-old brother works as a doctor in Beijing with a monthly salary of 120,000, living with a **girlfriend with a monthly salary of 8,000, both of whom find it difficult to save money every month. His girlfriend wanted to buy a house in Beijing, but in this expensive city, an RV loan became a financial burden for them. In fact, it is not easy to survive in a city like Beijing. It can be said that financial pressure has become one of the reasons why many older young people choose to postpone marriage.
However, cities are not the exclusive domain of older bachelors, and there are also large numbers of single men in rural areas. In rural areas, the high bride price has become an obstacle for older young people to prepare for marriage, and many people abandon their plans to marry because they cannot afford the high bride price. Women have higher financial demands on their husbands, which also exacerbates the economic pressure on men. Therefore, older men give up marriage and choose"Bland"Life situations are not uncommon. From this point of view, the issue of older singles requires attention not only in urban areas, but also in rural areas.
Marital status and practical dilemmas.
In big cities, it has become the norm for parents to find suitable partners for their children. Some cities have set up in parks"Blind date corner"It is here that parents prepare for their children's weddings. In Chengdu Park in Sichuan Province and Chang'an Park in Hebei Province, you can see all kinds of marriage notices everywhere. However, despite the efforts of parents to find the right partner, they find that fewer and fewer people are suitable for marriage. Strict conditions such as education, work, buying a house, and buying a car have become the criteria for many people to talk about marriage. In this environment, many older young people choose because they cannot meet these hard conditions"Single"or"Lie in bed"。
On the other hand, in many places, the high bride price has become a restriction on marriage. According to statistics, the national average bride price is 690,000 yuan, Zhejiang, Heilongjiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and other provinces have a higher bride price. This situation has led to enormous financial pressures on many older youths, discouraging some from doing so. The cost of marriage is getting higher and higher, but the willingness to marry is gradually decreasing, which is a common phenomenon in today's society.
Fertility and the cost of education.
In addition to marital issues, motherhood issues have also become the focus of social attention. With the declining birth rate and the intensification of late marriage and childbearing, many families are delaying childbearing. In cities and towns, advanced childbearing has become the norm. The cost of education has also affected the willingness of many families to have children. **Document 1 presented"Strengthen rural childbirth support and infant and child care services"policies aimed at reducing the cost of childbirth and promoting family reproduction.
However, the reality is that the cost of education remains high, and many families pay a high price for their children's education. For older young people, thinking about their children's education has also become a burden. Problems such as unbalanced educational resources and fierce competition make it difficult for many families to realize their good wishes for their children. In this context, low fertility and an increase in the number of older young people have become common phenomena in society.
Summary. In today's society, the issue of marriage and motherhood touches the hearts of many families. Whether in urban or rural areas, older young people face a series of dilemmas, such as economic pressures, bride price issues, and the cost of education, which are interlinked, leading them to choose to delay marriage and motherhood. **The birth incentive policy proposed in Document No. 1 undoubtedly provides some political support for alleviating this social problem. However, more social care and political support are needed to address these issues, so that all families can have a better living environment and opportunities for future development. Let society pay attention to these problems and make more active efforts to solve them.
