A Study on the Willingness of Women of Childbearing Age to Have Additional Children Under the Three-Child Policy
Journal: Advanced Journal of Nursing DOI: 10.32629/ajn.v6i4.4770
Abstract
This paper explores the current situation of low willingness among women of childbearing age in China to have additional children under the Three-Child Policy and its underlying driving factors. The study points out that high child-rearing costs, conflicts with career development, shortages of inclusive public services, and pressure from traditional family roles are the key factors inhibiting this willingness.
