Over 60 per cent of Chinese young people growing up without siblings say they felt miserable and lonely in their childhood, a survey has found.
About 46 per cent of them, who were born in the 1980s said that they would prefer to have two children themselves. China, the world’s most populous nation, implemented its strict one child per couple family-planning norm in the late 1970s. Officials say that without it, the country would have had 300 million more people than it has today.
