Skewed China birth rate to leave 24 million men single

Skewed China birth rate to leave 24 mln men single - Yahoo! News

I knew this would happen.

When China began controlling its population and limiting families to just one child, it was not uncommon to hear about pregnant mothers aborting their pregnancies when they found out the child they were carrying was a female. Some families went to the extreme and killed the female newborn in the hopes of having a male the next time around and keep the family line going.

So what happens 30 years later?

There is a surplus of males.

This surplus will most likely stabilize the population, if not bring it to a substantial decrease for many decades to come.

Good job.

"Lifetime free flights for baby born on plane"

OMG. Click here to read the story.

This has got to be the luckiest woman ever! She gave birth to her son during mid-flight. While I congratulate the doctor on board as well as the flight attendants, I couldn't help but think about certain restrictions that should be imposed for pregnant women while flying. I mean.... aren't there restrictions? Or is it just restrictions given by doctors?

I want to have a baby on board too!
