To give or not to give birth abroad

By Mu Guangzong (China Daily) Updated: 2014-02-26 07:15

Second, Chinese children who get other countries' and regions' nationalities may face difficulties when they return to China. Since they are not permanent residents of the Chinese mainland, they cannot enjoy social welfare such as education and medical treatment offered by the Chinese government. And their parents may have to pay huge amounts of money to raise them in China.

Besides, most Chinese children born overseas but growing up in China cannot enjoy the benefits and welfare of the countries of their birth. This means the children, despite being foreign citizens by birth, have to be raised in China. And if their parents want to send them back to their countries of birth after they grow up, they may face many social and cultural problems.

Third, going by the family planning policy, a couple could still be penalized even if their second or third child is born overseas. Some provinces have already issued regulations to penalize couples even if their second child is born abroad in violation of the family planning policy.

Fourth, childbirth-triggered immigration could lead to social conflicts in the places favored by Chinese mainland couples. Take Hong Kong as an example. The influx of mainland women giving birth in Hong Kong has left local residents worried about the depletion of the city's limited public resources and the great pressure it exerts on the education, healthcare and social welfare systems.

On the other hand, US citizens are most concerned about taxation. Many Americans think it's unfair for such children to enjoy the benefits of the US' public welfare after they gain adulthood and return to the country, because they are merely born in the US without their families paying taxes like other US citizens do. Besides, if the US were to amend the citizenship clauses in its Constitution, the future of such children would be uncertain.

Therefore, to reduce (if not to altogether end) the trend of Chinese mainland women giving birth overseas, Chinese authorities should strengthen the country's social welfare system and change the current family planning policy to benefit Chinese nationals.
