"Children do not ask to be born. A child is not a superannuation insurance policy. It is the responsibility of the parents to provide for the child. The child owes the parents NOTHING in return. Different culture BBQQ."

Haha, I don't know whether you have heard about this before. Chinese people have observed this rule for so long, that is, "There are three unfilial acts; bearing no descendant is by far the most unforgivable (不孝有三无后为大)". Today, it still has great impact on Chinese people. Maybe, that's why most Chinese people still want to bear babies.

One of my best female friend told me that she was going to have a baby next year. 2012 is the year of dragon. She said that it was good to give birth to a baby in the year of dragon. I just told her "There will be a lot of dragon babies next year and your kid will have many competitors. Be prepared for that! "

Almost correct but not quite. It should read; Today, it still has great impact on Chinese people. Maybe, that's why most Chinese people still want to bear BOYS.
