China has unwound its one-child policy, for decades a symbol of invasive and coercive government planning, but the shift has been met with a disinterested shrug from many younger couples.
中國解除數十年來象徵侵犯權利和強制政府計畫的一胎化政策，但許多年輕一代夫婦對此政策轉變的反應顯得淡漠。
"People are thinking： Why increase our burden by having another baby?" said Wu Tingting, a young mother pushing her one-year-old daughter in a stroller in the southern city of Zhuhai on Friday.
「人們在想，為何要多生個孩子增加我們的負擔？」週五在南方城市珠海推著推車裡1歲女兒的年輕媽媽吳婷婷說。
The ruling Communist Party announced on Thursday that all families in China will be eligible to have a second child, its biggest social policy shift in three decades, in a move to ease the burden of a fast-ageing society at a time of slowing economic growth.
執政的共產黨週四宣布，中國所有家庭都將有資格生第二個孩子，這是中國30年來最大的社會政策轉變，企圖在經濟成長放緩之際，減輕社會正迅速高齡化所帶來的負擔。
Wu, the young woman in Zhuhai, said prior to the policy change, she would have been fined 200,000 yuan if she had a second child. The fine will now be removed, but she remains ambivalent about another child.
在珠海的年輕媽媽吳小姐說，在這項政策改變前，若她生第二個孩子會被罰款人民幣20萬元。現在罰款將被取消，但她對於生第二個孩子的態度仍然矛盾。
"（People）will think about giving more to their existing child... and maybe spend more on education and travel, see more of the world," she said. （Reuters）
「（人們）會考慮對他們現有的孩子付出更多…，或許花多點錢在教育和旅行，多看看這個世界。」她說。（路透）
