> The One-Child policy isn't a hard policy wherein you are punished physically or imprisoned for having more than one child, it's a fine, [...] From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-child_policy#Mandatory_con... > As part of the policy, women were required to have a contraceptive intrauterine device (IUD) surgically installed after having a first child, and to be sterilized by tubal ligation after having a second child. From 1980 to 2014, 324 million Chinese women were fitted with IUDs in this way and 108 million were sterilized. Women who refused these procedures – which many resented – could lose their government employment and their children could lose access to education or health services. The IUDs installed in this way were modified such that they could not be removed manually, but only through surgery. |
