Lives of China's 150 million single children without siblings, result of the three decade old "one-child" experiment

11/13/2015

The costs of the "one child policy" are only now becoming evident as the new generation in China realizes what life is like without a brother or sister, without cousins or uncles and aunts. The policy has led to more selfishness, aversion to risk and other behaviours according to an Australian researcher. Parents doted on these children. Experience in Latin America has shown that birth rates declined as standard of living and education improved without state led coercion.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
