Abstract
This paper discusses how, although China's one child policy imposed strict family planning rules on the Chinese people and destroyed their right to privacy, for the government had a hand in every bedroom in China, it did, however, do what it sought out to do: reduce the overpopulation. In particular, the paper looks at both sides of the argument as to whether the policy cause more problems than it solves. The paper concludes that, overall, China's one child policy has been a success and caused much more good than bad.

Does China's One Child Policy Cause More Problems Than it Solves?
Yes
No
Conclusion
From the Paper
"When the One Child Policy was put into place in 1979 it had one goal in mind: to control the population growth of China, which held one-fifth of the world's population. The government of China set out to control their growth and the rest of the world should have been taking notes. Many do not care to realize, but it has been speculated that the earth can only sustain 10 billion people, a number that it projected to be met by 2050. That number could be reached before this student even makes it to Social Security. Obviously something needs to be done to control the population on earth, and we should all look at China as an example. It is estimated that the One Child Policy has prevented about 300 million people in its first twenty years alone. "

Abstract
This paper discusses China's one child policy. It analyzes the history of the policy, as well as the reasons behind it and its consequences for the people of China and China as a country. The paper focuses on the negative results of this policy, in terms of gender imbalance and the possible result of self-centered individuals.
From the Paper
"Another problem which started with the one child policy was that people started to abandon their children. If parents who wished to have a boy had a girl instead, they would abandon the baby child and then try again to have a boy. To parents boys are more important because they see them as support in old age. They want the boy to grow up and take care of them. Girls normally cannot do this and when married, they go to live with their husbands and take care of his parents. Hence such abandonment cases have also been on the rise. Before the one child policy was in effect people used to abandon their children and even kill them due to poverty. The same is happening now which shows that the Chinese government has failed to address to this problem."

From the Paper
"The population of China has been exploding in the last several decades, with reports of more than 549 million people in the early 20th century alone (Smith, 1991). The population reached and exceeded 1 billion in the 1980s, more than one-fifth of the world's total population (Smith, 1991:116). China's tremendous population growth has resulted in many problems. One major concern is that there is not enough land to support the number of people living in the country. The population growth has continued despite a lack of increases in the amount of cultivatable land thus there is only half as much land per capita for example in 1979 as there was in 1949, and the number has continued to decline through the nineties (Smith, 1991)."

Abstract
This paper explains that China's controversial one-child policy has ethical and environmental issues; however, this essay focuses on the effects the policy has had on the girls of China. The author stresses that the policy has had both positive and negative effects. The paper relates that, while many girls appear to have simply "disappeared" so that the youthful population figures have become unnaturally skewed in favor of boys, the surviving girls and women of China have benefited in strange and unexpected ways.
From the Paper
"There are few issues to do with China that have caused as much controversy as the one-child policy. The ethical and environmental issues raised by the policy are certainly important. However, this essay focuses simply on the effects the policy has had on the girls of China. As will be seen, the policy has had both positive and negative effects. While many girls appear to have simply "disappeared", so that the youthful population figures have become unnaturally skewed in favor of boys, the surviving girls and women of China have benefited in strange and unexpected ways."

Abstract
This paper reviews how the Chinese government implemented a strict one-child policy decades ago in order to control its drastic population explosion. The author indicates that although the policy was enforced with reward and punishment, it has been largely successful. However, this policy, against natural process of reproduction, is creating serious social issues such as gender imbalance and orphans. The policy is very controversial due to its inhumane approach including mass sterilizations and forced abortions, and the policy also violates a human right of reproduction. This paper examines whether China can supply enough food, jobs and places to live for its people despite this policy and what problems China will face in the future.
From the Paper
"More than a fifth of the world's population lives in China today. Even though Chinese government had implemented a fairly successful One-child policy, Chinese population will continue to grow until it is estimated to level off sometime before 2100. Chinese government was successful in making people believe that having more than one child is not good for China's future. On the other hand, strict and inhumane policy had raised some issues in terms of basic human rights in reproduction and also damage to traditional values. However controversial the policy was, it helped to control China's population growth. The question China must answer is; Can China support itself today, and in the future?"

Abstract
This paper examines how the one-child policy was implemented in China in 1979 in an attempt to stabilize and/or reduce the population, which was growing at an alarming rate. It looks at how the policy has, at times, been praised as an effective tool and, at times, reviled as a tool for human rights abuses and female infanticide. It discusses how, although the negative effects can be seen to vastly outnumber the value of the good effects, one must consider the value of the negative effects when placed against the importance of reducing/stabilizing the population.
From the Paper
"However, despite all the negative aspects of the Policy, there have been some substantial results in terms of population. The birth rate is down to 1.8 children per woman (in 1990 it stood at 5.01). That is below the birth rate of America (2.1) and the replacement rate (the replacement rate is how many children need to be born per woman to counteract deaths and keep the population stable) which is also 2.1. The population of 65 year olds has also risen. In 1990 in was only 66 million, it was expected in the late 1990's that they would exceed 90 million by the turn of the century. This is a sign that the population is healthier, as people are more people are living longer. However, although this news is impressive, it was expected by the government that the population would not exceed 1 billion by the year 2000. As the current population is now at 1.26 billion (not including the millions of unregistered people) it is clear that the policy has not worked as well as it was once hoped. Nevertheless there have been some positive changes."

Abstract
This paper discusses that even though the one-child policy in China does make economic sense, on a social level it is disastrous. It explains that socially, only children are less developed and that some parents go as far as to murder or abandon their new-born girls because they want a boy if they are only going to have one child.
From the Paper
"Ever since the advent of Man, he has been reproducing and because of such today we exist. If all the creatures on the face of this planet including man would stop reproducing then the Earth would soon become lifeless. Plants, beasts, insects and man all undergo this natural process to keep the life cycle running. Reproduction is a natural process and a birthright given to man by God. No major religion of the world, be it Christianity, Judaism or Islam, ever puts a limit to the number of children one can have. Islam further gives man the right to practice polygyny under certain circumstances like when it fears population depletion after war. The Biblical scriptures also talk about biblical personalities who had many wives. The point underlying this is that God did not put restriction on man yet an Asian country explains that because it was about to undergo a population explosion, it has limited its people to have only one child. This is what known as "China's One Child Policy". It is thus illegal in China to have more than one child."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Although nearly one-fourth of the world's total population lives in China there is a shortage in China but is not what one would expect to hear in that there is a shortage of individuals in terms of workers and in terms of females available for marriage. This shortage is very severe on both accounts and is illustrated through the facts that there are not enough individuals of working age to support the elderly population that comprises a large percentage of the countries population. Just as impacting is the fact that there is a shortage of brides for the men in China that equals one million men per year beginning in the year 2020 without available women in the society for marriage and starting a family."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The One-Child policy has been a successful attempt by China to curb its population. This law has now been renamed the Law on Population and Family Planning, 2002. It is viewed as a women friendly law but ends up compromising their freedom and equality. This law helps to educate people about family planning and helping women improve their status in society as well as ending discrimination of women and abandonment of female infants. These policies proved that the Chinese Authorities have softened their stance on the One-Child Policy but then they have stated that they will be continuing this policy during their 2006-2010 planning period."

From the Paper
"A California group known as KZPG, (Western TV and Radio Braodcasters for Zero Population Growth) has organized a campaign to instill the One Child Policy in the United States. Based in Los Angeles, the group believes that the earth's natural resources are being destroyed by man's increasing need for housing and development. They estimate that in the near future the majority of the earth's natural resources will be contaminated because of overpopulation. Therefore, the organization invites families to pledge their commitment to having only one child. To date the organization has received 192 pledges."
