Germany's fertility rate has been declining year after year, giving birth to a subsidy of 60,000 euros, why are the locals unmoved?
With the development of society, many people began to choose to become unmarried people, Dink people, for them to have children is a kind of "burden" on life, they may think that "having children" is happy, but will never have children. This passage is like a tongue twister, but I believe you must be able to read it. Today's Germany encounters such problems. Young people are starting to get married at a lower age, and married couples are reluctant to have children. So that for the normal continuation of the population, the German government has offered a price tag of nearly 60,000 euros (about 460,000 yuan) to give birth to a child, but the effect does not seem to be as good as imagined.
Although similar problems have arisen in many of China's major cities, the fertility rate of the whole country is still in a relatively stable state in general. In the eyes of many Chinese parents, the child is actually a manifestation of the continuation of future generations, and it is more like a psychological dependence on the elderly. But the Germans really don't think so.
Did you know that the divorce rate in Germany is very high, and about a third of couples in all of Germany end up with the breakdown of their marriage? Maybe it depends on their open and free personalities, and maybe on the other hand it also depends on the fact that they don't have children of their own. Why?
In Germany, there is a rule that when a couple has children, the government advocates that women personally carry the children until they are two years old, so that they can get a government-provided education fund. Many women become full-time wives after having children, and the family's financial resources fall on men. At this time, if they are divorced, the children follow the mother. The man then has to give the woman a third of his salary every month to raise the child until the woman finds a job that the government deems fully capable of raising the child. What if you don't have children? Then this maintenance will not exist. Hello me hello everyone, feel free to divorce and live separately.
Germany is a country of "workaholic" people working a long average of hours. Many people are very enterprising, but since ancient times, career and family are a dilemma, so more people choose careers rather than families. It is not that Germans do not love children, but that many of them want to give the child the best education and environment if they want to raise it. Under the premise that their time and economic conditions are not allowed, and marriage is not full of confidence, they basically do not rush to consider the matter of breeding offspring.
In 1965, there were more than 1.32 million children born in Germany every year, and after forty-six years, only 660,000 children were born every year, which was exactly half the number. This is enough to show how serious the situation facing Germany is now. So in order to encourage fertility, the German government issued a high childcare allowance, a total of 60,000 euros, but even if such a high allowance was issued, the fertility rate was still not high, and many people still chose to become Dinks.
In addition, we have to say that with the progress of social concepts and the diversification of people's ideas, in Germany, the degree of sexual openness is almost among the best in the world; and same-sex love in Germany has long been not a "problem", and people are very calm and accept it very plainly. In fact, many factors add up to make developed Germany face the problem of a small number of births. It's also possible that most of us aren't in their living environment, so we can't actually feel it.
