If their family cannot do so, the government should take responsibility.Children have the right to get education, development and medical care, which should be provided by the government.Children mustnt be tortured by their parents or others.

Many young children are made to work long hours in factories and on farms. In some countries there are so few schools that only rich children can get education.

Thats to say, China now allows two children for each family. However, different people have different opinions about it. Some parents are willing to have a second child as soon as possible. They think the second baby is a gift for themselves. One child will feel lonely when his parents go out for work. Two kids will help each other and share happiness and sadness together. In Chinese tradition, the old people wouldnt like to spend their later life in the old peoples home. After the second baby grows up, he will be able to share the pressure of looking after his old parents. China has become a country with an increasing number of old people. Two-child policy will improve the balanced (平衡的) development of population. However, other parents refuse the second child because they have some worries. For example, they cant afford the cost of education. They also worry that their two children wont get along with one another. Maybe the young people cant find jobs easily in the future. For our country, perhaps the policy will lead to the house and population problems. In a word, more and more families will have a second child. Do you mind having a brother or a sister?38 .
