The National Health Commission of China organized a survey to understand why people avoid families, in particular, refuse to have children. This was reported by Reuters ,and UNN.
Details
The government is trying to increase the low birth rate in China, so it surveyed 30,000 people to understand the factors that influence their attitudes toward childbearing.
The survey will include people from 150 counties in China and 1500 different communities. The survey aims to analyze "reluctance and fear associated with having children" and ultimately provide birth support and incentives.
In this way, Beijing is trying to encourage young couples to have children against the backdrop of China's population decline for the second year in a row.

The government also calls for shared parental responsibility to guide young people toward a "positive view of marriage, childbirth, and family.
