TOTAL FERTILITY RATE… …is the average number of children born per woman. This number varies throughout different countries due to many reasons…

Women in MEDC’s tend to have fewer children because… Many men and women have good jobs which they want to pursue, rather than start a family.Many men and women have good jobs which they want to pursue, rather than start a family.

China… Over the last few decades, China’s fertility rate has changed drastically. Reasons for this include those listed for MEDC’s, but also because of the government enforcement on the one child policy

In 1966 China reached its highest rate at 7.7, but quickly reduced to 3.0 in China’s fertility rate is now about 1.8 and is keeping at a steady rate.

However… This government enforcement has its problems… The sex ratio becomes biased as male children are more desirable (It is now illegal for a doctor to tell you you child's gender before birth). Abortions have been made illegal to ensure equal amount of both sexes. Later generations will not have siblings, cousins etc (so small families).
