“Mrs Hailin said that she and her husband wanted to have the twins to ‘survive and free myself from loneliness.’ So, in a rare move for the country which enforces a one-child policy, a military hospital in Heifei agreed to give Mrs Hailin and her husband IVF treatment. In November last year, the Chinese government announced couples could have two children if one parent is an only child. An estimated one million families in the country have lost their sole descendant since the one child policy took effect in the late 1970s, and another four to seven million are expected to do so in the next 20 to 30 years. Such families face uncertain futures, with no one to help them through old age.”
