I've heard from a couple of ob's that I work w/ that they have had patients come in with trouble concieving children. Unbenounced to the mom to be, an IUD was placed after birth of the first child back in the homeland. What are your opinons of birth/population control?

Tho people unknowingly being implanted with birth control, nah, don't agree with that at all.
Realistically, it is understandable in some senses (resources, reducing need for state support). But that's probably in part the hatred for the way in which things work here, where there are people who contribute nothing productive to society, just pump out a bunch of kids and live entirely off the state...

And there have been stories off and on of OBGYNs in China tying the tubes of women after they've had their child or a second child. Don't know if that accusation has ever been verified, though.

I remember back when I was in high school, we had a new student whose family had just immigrated from China. Apparently their neighbours had their electricity and other amenities shut off when it was discovered they'd had a second child.

There's the ethical implications of China's procreating policies and then there are the Durkheimian fuctional implications of China's procreating policies.
While placing the IUDs without consent doesn't exactly make me comfortable, it is better then forced abortion, IMO.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Southern New Jersey | | | Such policies have consequences that politicians often don't see. One child per couple, combined with the techniques now available so the parents know what sex their unborn child is, mixed with a deeply ingrained cultural preference for boys, equals lots of girl fetuses being aborted (or abandoned after birth) so couples can try again for a boy - and sometimes, again and again and again. Fifteen, twenty years down the road a lot of those parents are now not going to be grandparents - because there are a lot more teenage and twentish young males than there are girls for them to get married to. Sad situation all the way around.

That just...sucks all around.

It's easy to call foul on it based on our customs, but I daresay that Chinese folk will see things exactly the same way we do.

On the other hand, if people want to starve to death due to excess procreation I guess that's their own right and responsibility.
I dunno.
