The rule has been blamed for creating a gender imbalance, with families eager to have boys rather than a girls.
The policy of limiting one child to each family and two for those living in rural areas is starting an issue with the gender balance. Most families would rather have a boy than a girl. The suggestion to make changes to this policy has been considered in the past but have not taken action due to the fear of a major population growth that China doesn't want to handle.
