Within 20 years, the gap between one-child families and two-child families became apparent.
In the past, people were very open in terms of having children, and it was the norm to have several children in a family, and if there were more children, it would even reach double digits. This situation may seem a bit fantastical to people now, and even feel incredible: How can so many children be raised? But no matter how you think about it, don't people all come over like this? After all, in the eyes of the old people, as long as the children are brought up, their tasks will be completed, and it has nothing to do with them as for how the children will live in the future.
However, it is indeed very happy to have more children, after all, every New Year's holiday, a large family sits together for dinner, not to mention how lively that scene is. But today's young people don't think so, they think that since they have children, they need to be responsible for their children, give them the best life and material conditions, and pave a good future and development path for them.
Coupled with heavy social pressure, many people dare not continue to give birth after giving birth. Although there is not much difference between the current one-child and two-child families, the gap will be evident within 20 years. So how big is the gap between the two?
Gaps in the growth environment.
The growth environment of the only child is also completely different from the nutritional environment of the second-child family, and it may not feel much when it is a child, but as the child grows older, the child's demand for social interaction will continue to increase. When you see that there are people around you, and your younger siblings can play with them but you don't, a sense of loss will also emerge in your heart, so only children have endured loneliness that does not belong to their age group since they were young.
The gap between parents and their parents.
For families with only children, they may still be pampered when they are young, but this situation will change as they get older. When your age increases, your parents' age is also aging, and you will face the problem of providing for the elderly.
If the parents are still in good physical condition and can be self-satisfied, the children will only be given a pension fee, but if the parents have physical problems and need to be taken care of, then the only child will face pressure from many aspects such as family work. On the other hand, it is relatively easy for those families with two children, and they can replace each other to take care of the elderly. Even if there is pressure, it will be less stressful.
The gap in the child's mentality.
For second-child families, the most headache is the problem of competition between children, because the material conditions of the previous people are not very good, so each child does not get so much, basically can be in a flat state. Even if there is an occasional problem of inequality, those who are older will take the initiative to let the younger children.
And now it's different, there are almost only one or two children in each family, each of them is held in the palm of the hand, at this time there will be a contrast between the children, and it is likely to cause a quarrel because of the uneven distribution of something, although it is ostensibly noisy for something, but in fact it is a snatch of parental love and attention. Even if parents try to be fair and impartial, there will still be children who think that their parents are unfair and that they favor their siblings.
