Germany, the country with the most shortage of children in the world, gives birth to a reward of 600 thousand. Why don't locals want to have children?

When it comes to women having children, most people think it is a matter of course, but times are changing. Women in more and more countries are reluctant to have children, and the problem of fertility has even become a problem? Century problem? . Some women just want to have one child, but they are determined not to have a second child, and some women are unwilling to have one. If this happens in China, it is mostly because of economic conditions. If you can't afford to have children, having children is also a kind of pain. However, in some foreign countries, the welfare of birth policy is very high, but women are still reluctant to have children, especially in Germany, where there are various benefits after giving birth, but German women are still reluctant to have children. What is the current fertility situation in Germany?

In the past 30 years, the birth rate in Germany has been very low compared with other countries. Since 20 10, Germany has become one of the countries with the most serious declining birthrate in Europe. In that year, the proportion of minors in Germany was only 16.5%. Although the German government has introduced various child subsidy policies to encourage women to give birth, it is still difficult to change the status quo of low birth rate. Nowadays, most children in German families are only children, and German school-age women have an average of 1.3 children. Why don't Germans want to have children?

In fact, the relevant institutions in Germany conducted an investigation on this a long time ago, and 40% of the respondents said that the primary reason for not wanting to have children was? Haven't found the right partner yet? . Without a partner, there is naturally no possibility of marriage, no basis for marriage, and no choice to have children. Get married first and have children? This concept is universal. What are the reasons why other respondents are unwilling to have children? Feeling too young? Or? Want to give yourself more spare time? These two concepts are the main reasons why women in the world are unwilling to have children or postpone having children, especially well-educated women, who have their own unique understanding of fertility.

Germany's generous maternity benefits In order to encourage fertility, the German government has also racked its brains, such as subsidizing childcare fees and reducing taxes and fees for childbearing families; The German government also started to implement it in 2007? Parents' money Policy, that is, the government allocates about 4 billion euros to subsidize one of the newborn parents with 12 months' salary, and can apply for a year's leave at the same time. If the mother applies for this allowance, then the father can apply for an extra two months? Paternity leave? During this period, my father can get about 67% of his salary.

After German Chancellor Murdoch took office, he also made a special decision on the birth policy: he established maternity leave benefits for parents and stipulated that newborns have the legal right to enter day care centers from 20 13. There are few types of day care institutions in Germany, only full-time kindergartens and day care centers, and the number cannot meet the needs of German children. Many mothers have the experience of sending their children to day-care institutions, but will enterprises emphasize it? Life-work balance? And then what? Family first? With this concept, many parents have to change their full-time jobs into part-time jobs. However, as long as they work, it is easy to affect the time spent with their children, especially the inability to pick up and drop off their children on time, which has caused many people to fall into anxiety at present, so a large number of people have resigned directly.

Influenced by this vicious circle, many German women no longer trust the birth policy of the government and enterprises. They think this is a trap, because most people have children and are unemployed. Even if they return to work after giving birth, they will be treated unkindly by others, and they will not enjoy the benefits of promotion and salary increase after returning to work, because the upward space is blocked.

Although the maternity benefits of German parents cost the government 2 1 10,000 dollars, no matter how much the government spends, the problem of negative population growth cannot be solved. According to the survey conducted by the German Ministry of Family Affairs, most people think that the ideal situation of a family is to have two children, but in fact, many families don't even want one child, mainly because women don't have the initiative to have children.

Again, German women think that having children will make them lose a lot of things and only get the title of mother. Mothers are great, but in the German concept, it is not wrong not to have children. Not having children doesn't mean not loving children. They just want to pursue the lifestyle they want.
