Patient's question:
I am a woman, currently 30 years old. Recently, the national policy has been relaxed, allowing me and my husband to already have one child. We want to have a second child. Could you please tell me the advantages and disadvantages of having a second child?Doctor's answer:
If you only have one child, it might feel a bit lonely, but having two young children allows them to play together and grow together. Moreover, if the child is raised to think they are the center of the family, it is not good. Having a second child can teach them many skills and lay a solid foundation for interpersonal relationships, which is beneficial for the child as well. Raising a child to adulthood requires a lot of effort, and the financial level required for a second child will be higher. If the family's financial foundation is not strong, it is better not to have a second child.
