China suffers from the following due to its wrong birth control practices:
An Ageing Population:
This refers to the increasing proportion of elderly citizens compared to the working-age population. With fewer children being born, the population’s average age is rising rapidly . This demographic shift results in a higher dependency ratio, where a smaller working-age population must support a larger retired population.
Strain on Social Welfare Systems
As the elderly population grows, there is greater demand for pensions, healthcare, and social services. This places significant strain on government budgets and social welfare systems, as there are fewer working-age individuals contributing to these programs through taxes.

Labour Shortages
This is because there are not enough young people entering the workforce to replace retiring workers. This can hinder economic growth and productivity, as businesses struggle to find skilled workers and meet the demand for goods and services.
Reduced Consumer Spending
With fewer young people starting families, household spending on items such as housing, childcare, and education decreases. This negatively affects consumer-driven economies, as businesses that rely on domestic consumption will experience reduced demand.
Impact on Economic Growth
Overall, the declining birth rates have slowed down economic growth and innovation. Without a growing population to drive demand, investment, and entrepreneurship, countries may struggle to maintain competitiveness in the global economy.
Not only China, but countries like Japan and Russia are also facing varying degrees of these challenges, and each of these countries is implementing different policies and strategies to address them.
