Is the policy of family planing necessary?

I was always asked by my friends " why do Chinese just can have one child?", I hope I can answer answer the question as the following.

China's population has rapidly increased since liberation. In order to control the fast growth of population, China began to advocate the family planning policy in 1979. In the following years, a marked decline of China birth rate proved that the fundamen-tal policy is very necessary.

However, not all people agree with this. Those who object to it think that this policy is a little flagent, because it tramples on the most sacred of wonmen's rights: the right to motherhood. And they also think that the only child in the family is a little loney. It may cause some psychological problems, thus it is better to have two children. But in my opinion, I still think that the " one couple, one child" policy is necessary.

With the fast growth of population, there are some social problems: increasing need of food, water, and living quarters: intensive competition in job hunting: a kind of environmental pollution, and so on. All these will hamper the country's development. Our state wants to catch up with the develpoed countries and raise people's living level, so the best way is to control the population.

Above all. considering the development of our motherland, to carry out the family planning policy is quite reasonable and still necessary.
