But money is not the only factor in influencing couples' decision to have children. It is widely known that there are multiple barriers to starting a family, let alone adding another member to the family in China, or elsewhere. As a result of the huge changes in society in recent years, younger people in China have very different expectations from their parents in terms of how they want to live their lives and, importantly, to capitalize on the very high level of education they have received.

As a result of the possible population flow between cities and even countries, the young generation does have different expectations on their lives from the old one in terms of where they want to live and importantly how they want to make a decent living.  

Under these conditions, policies which simply aim to "increase fertility rates" without recognizing and addressing the underlying reasons for couples' hesitation may be destined to fail, or, at most, be an expensive means of simply changing the tempo of childbearing.

Under these conditions, parents who just want to discipline their children without noticing the generation gap that exists between them are supposed to take parenting courses to learn about knowledge and skills for smoothly communicating with their children especially adolescents.
