Nowadays, the younger generation does not have much awareness of childbearing, and there are boys or girls around me who choose not to get married. This was inconceivable in the past, but now, some of the older generation have no choice but to give up making a last-ditch effort when they have no way to change their children's minds.
This is unmarried, they don't even want to get married, how can you expect him to have children? And even people who have entered marriage don't have such a strong sense of childbearing. In small and medium-sized cities, the next generation is generally expected to have two children, but in large cities this is not very common, and it is almost impossible for them to have three children.
With the continuous decline of the number of new births, which is extremely unfavorable to the development of the country, how to stimulate young people to have children has become a new issue in society. In order to stimulate young people to have children, various policies have been introduced in various places to promote young people to have children. Recently, the Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau and the Municipal Finance Bureau revised and issued the "Notice on Giving Living Subsidies to Families with More than Triplets".
According to this policy, triplet families will be able to enjoy a living allowance of 1,970 yuan per month. In the document, it is clear that three conditions must be met: the children are under the age of 18 (at least 16 years old, except for those who rely on their own labor income as their main source of livelihood) or have reached the age of 18 but are all in school to receive full-time undergraduate education or below;
From this condition, it is not for all triplet families, but for those with low income. This is something that all people must see.
In order to implement this policy, the application process has been simplified. As long as the materials of the applicant family are submitted to the sub-district office and the township people's government for review, the "Notice of Acceptance of the Application for Living Allowance for Families with More than Triplets in Shanghai" can be issued. The design of this policy is still relatively intimate, shortening the application cycle.
Triplets often face more financial pressures in their lives. Expenses for children's growth, education, medical care, etc. are all significant expenses. The introduction of the living subsidy policy has undoubtedly brought a ray of sunshine to these families, allowing them to be more calm and firm in the face of life pressure.
This not only reflects the Shanghai Municipal Government's concern and support for families with multiple births, but also demonstrates the government's positive actions in ensuring people's livelihood. It makes the triplet families feel the warmth and care of the society, and also provides them with a more solid economic security.
However, we should also see a reality, that is, this subsidy can not completely solve the practical plight of triplet families, but only a kind of spiritual comfort for them. In order to solve the worries of triplet families, it is necessary for the society to intervene and support, such as: advocating all sectors of society to pay attention to the needs of multiparent families, providing them with more employment opportunities and educational resources, encouraging more enterprises and individuals to participate in public welfare undertakings, and providing more help and care for these families.
To truly solve the problem of young people's low fertility intentions, we need to understand and deal with it at a deeper level. Policy subsidies, such as Shanghai's subsidy policy for triplet families, are undoubtedly a positive attempt to alleviate the financial pressure of these families to a certain extent. However, this is only the beginning, and we need more diverse and comprehensive strategies.
We must recognize that young people's low fertility intentions are not just a matter of economic pressure. The fast-paced and competitive pressures of modern society have made young people face unprecedented challenges. They need to find a balance between work, study, life, etc., and having and raising children will undoubtedly add more burdens to them. Therefore, we need to build a social environment that is more supportive of young families.
For example, we can further improve the maternity and parental leave systems so that young parents have more time to spend with and care for their children. At the same time, we also need to increase investment in public education, health care and other resources, so that young families can be more relaxed in the process of facing the growth of their children.
In addition, we also need to guide young people to establish a correct concept of childbearing. Procreation is not only an individual choice, but also a social responsibility. We should encourage young people to see the positive side of childbearing, the joy and growth that children bring us, not just the financial pressures that come with childbearing.
In general, solving the problem of low fertility desire among young people requires the joint efforts of our whole society. We need to start from many aspects such as policies, environment, and concepts to provide more support and help for young families. Only in this way can we meet the challenges of an ageing population and ensure the long-term development of the country.
Of course, in addition to the government's policy guidance and support, we also need to stimulate young people's willingness to have children from a broader social level. Media and social media platforms can play an important role in raising awareness among young people about the importance of childbearing for individuals and society by promoting the positive value of childbearing and stories of family happiness. At the same time, we can also encourage and support various parent-child activities, family education seminars, etc., so that young people can better understand the joys and challenges of parenting, so as to enhance their desire to have children.
In addition, we should also pay attention to the status and rights of women in the workplace. Women play an important role in the family and at work, and their fertility intentions and behaviors have a direct impact on population growth and family happiness. Therefore, we need to promote gender equality and create a fairer and more equitable workplace environment for women, so that they can find a better balance between career and family.
Finally, we need to strengthen the popularization and education of fertility knowledge. Let young people understand the scientific knowledge and health knowledge of fertility, so as to treat fertility issues more rationally and scientifically. At the same time, we also need to strengthen our attention and support for children's education and growth, and create a healthier and happier environment for children to grow up.
In short, stimulating young people's desire to have children is a long-term and complex process, which requires us to work together from multiple aspects to create a more supportive social environment for young families. Only in this way can we meet the challenges of an ageing population and ensure the long-term development of the country.
