If young people choose not to have children, who will take care of the country's future? This is not only a concern for one family, but also a problem for the whole society.

There are complex social reasons behind the decline in fertility. First of all, we must face up to the fact that the high cost of childcare has become a significant reason why young people are discouraged. In this era of fierce competition, the rising costs of housing prices, education, health care, etc., have made many young people feel stressed.
They are worried that they will not be able to provide a good environment for their children to grow up, so they choose to give up childbearing temporarily or permanently. In addition, the status of women in the workplace is also rising, and many women are reluctant to give up their careers because of childbirth, which has also led to a decline in the fertility rate.
In addition to economic pressures, changes in social attitudes are also one of the important reasons for the decline in fertility rates. In the past, childbearing was seen as the responsibility and mission of the family, but now, more and more young people are pursuing personal worth and freedom. They are more focused on their quality of life and are not willing to be bound by traditional ideas. At the same time, the change in the concept of marriage has also made young people pay more attention to finding a partner who matches their hearts, rather than marrying just for the sake of childbearing. This shift has made marriage more complicated and indirectly led to a decline in fertility.
In addition, policy factors have an impact on fertility. Although the state has introduced a series of policies to encourage childbirth, the actual effect is not satisfactory. On the one hand, these policies tend to focus only on the short-term benefits of childbearing, while ignoring long-term social development. On the other hand, there are also certain problems in the implementation and effectiveness of policies. For example, in some places, the birth subsidy policy has not been really implemented, leaving young people feeling disappointed and dissatisfied.
In the face of declining fertility, we need to start from a number of aspects. First, the government should invest more in the cost of childcare to reduce the financial pressure on young people. For example, the burden on families can be reduced by improving the level of public services such as education and medical care. At the same time, the government should strengthen the protection of women's rights and interests in the workplace, so that women can be treated equally in the workplace and at home.
Second, we need to guide young people to establish a correct concept of childbearing. This includes strengthening education and publicity on marriage, family, child-rearing, etc., so that young people can better understand the meaning and value of childbearing. At the same time, we also need to respect everyone's choices and not overemphasize the responsibilities and obligations of childbearing. Finally, we need to continue to improve the fertility policy to ensure that it can be truly implemented to provide a better environment for young people to have children.
The decline in fertility is a complex social problem that requires our joint efforts to solve it. Only through the joint efforts of the government, society and individuals can more young people be willing to have children and contribute to the future of the country. Let us work together to contribute our wisdom and strength to the prosperity of the country and the rejuvenation of the nation.
