What are the benefits of having a second child?

The two-child policy was fully implemented nationwide starting from January 2016. This is a people-friendly policy decided based on the existing situation of the country. It has many benefits for every suitable family, such as making the eldest child more independent, making the family more harmonious and more secure, providing better protection for children, and improving the health of women.

Benefit 1: Make the older child more independent

Only children always make people feel lonely. In fact, as modern people's living standards have improved, children have become more and more "precious". As a result, many only children have others do everything for them, and they cannot share their worries with others in time. More importantly, it is easy for them to develop a "self-centered" character. And if a second child is born, the family elders will naturally focus some of their focus on the second child. When there are delicious food or drinks at home, the parents will ask the older child to share. This will help cultivate the older child's independent character and also allow the child to feel the preciousness of sisterly love.

Benefit 2: More harmonious family

Compared with a family with only one child, having two children is more beneficial to family harmony. Especially for those families whose eldest child is already in his or her teens and no longer requires excessive care from the parents, adding another little one will allow all family members to return to a busy state, which is more conducive to family harmony. For example, if the first baby is a boy or a girl, wouldn't it be a great blessing to have another baby to make up a good word?

Benefit 3: More security

People will always get older. If there is only one child, then this child will definitely grow up in the future, will definitely fly away, will definitely get married, have children, and will definitely have his or her own life. At this time, if there are two children, perhaps one of them can stay with the parents. Especially when parents are sick, having two children to take turns sharing the burden is definitely better than having only one child.

Benefit 4: Better protection for children

As parents get older, no one can guarantee that they can always be with their children. People living in this world will inevitably encounter various difficulties. At this time, if you have a brother or sister who can help you share the burden, accompany you in your growth, and move forward hand in hand with you, then it would definitely be a great thing. The saying "brothers united are stronger than metal" is exactly about this truth.

Benefit 5: Women’s health

For example, if you did not take good care of yourself during your first pregnancy and suffered from postpartum sickness, you can now adjust yourself by having a second child.

The above content introduces the specific benefits of women having a second child, but everything has two sides. Although having a second child has so many advantages, it also has many disadvantages. If a couple has a second child, their living standards will decline and the woman’s figure will also be out of shape. So I suggest that if you want to have a second child, the premise is that the couple must consider it carefully, so that there will be more tacit understanding between the couple and the family will be happier.
