Yang Zhizhu knew the dire consequences of breaking China's one-child policy. He would be stripped of his professorship at a Beijing university and hit with such a large fine that his family would be destitute.
But when he found out that his wife, Chen Hong, was pregnant for the second time aged 38, they decided they could not let the opportunity pass.
"We never planned this, but despite the problems we knew it would cause, we were over the moon," he said. "How much longer can the one-child policy last, anyway?"
When China introduced its drastic population controls, officials promised that it would lift them after 30 years - an anniversary which falls this weekend. Aware of the resentment the policy would cause, the government said it was a temporary measure in response to China's high unemployment and food scarcity.
"In 30 years, when our current extreme population growth eases, we can then adopt a different population policy," read the announcement from the Communist Party Central Committee.

These commie monsters are the most lethal virus ever faced by humanity. We purged Polio and Smallpox. If only we showed 1% of that dedication towards this far greater blight! They need to be "vaccinated" wherever and whenever we find them.
Remember the faces of their victims. Look at faces of the children in that photo. How easily either of them could have been tossed alive into the furnace. This and worse happens every day in China.
Whenever you find a leftist in the workplace, in the neighborhood, the pub, or anywhere let them know they have incurred interest payable only in blood.
It’s a shame their nation wasn’t invaded by Muslims instead of Europe. Try telling THOSE people that the government limits them to one child...
The one child policy has been most lethal to girls leading to a skewed population in terms of the ratio of male to female.
Please, they had a hard enough time with the Europeans, not to mention the Japanese. Wishing muslim culture on them is just plain cruel.
That has changed a bit in the developed cities of China. Woman have considerable earning power in China, especially at foreign companies setting up there.
On the couple in the story, it sounds like the problem was they could not afford to pay for the social services the state requires they pay for a second child. For those that can afford them, the policy is relaxed.
The two deserve each other?
It’s a shame that life exists in the first place. The tragedy here is that innocent children are being exterminated after they already come into being. If would be just as bad if Islam conquered China.
It is always the innocent who pay the price. We could slaughter 100 million leftists and they will still win because they can brainwash the youth. There is absolutely no hope of stopping them but we can still torture and execute them out of vengeance. Just make their final victory as painful as possible.
