China.
The Unique Child.
Since
1979, the Chinese government has enforced the "one family one child
policy".
Because
the country population had exploded to one milliard three

If
fines and propaganda do not work, women may be forced to have an
abortion and thousands of unwanted little girls are abandoned in
orphanages.
After
20 years, the policy has taken a move since 1998: the unique
child is still highly "recommended" in big cities, and a second child
is tolerated in rural areas if the first child is a girl...
