Bogert et al, though making a passionate effort to convey their views, they fail to provide a convincing piece of work. They argue that family planning leads to negle

. . .
However, no strong evidence was located in order to help support their; as they simply say “untold abuses have been committed in its [one child policy] name” (Bogert 1). It is projected that by the year 2000, the population of those above 65 years of age will reach 128 million, and by the year 2050, 375 million. In contrast Bogert et al’s article is deficient in certain factors like supporting evidence and clear flowing ideas, which make a written piece successful. He shows how “the sole objective of family planning in China is the continued improvement of our citizen’s [China’s citizens] material and culture lives” (Peiyun 1) and how its goal is also to “prevent genetic and birth defects” (Peiyun 1). These three paragraphs all add to the articles ideas however the authors jump from one point to the other that the reader is lost and has to reread the same paragraphs a number to times to understand. 8 percent, thereby diminishing the rate of natural increase from 2. The aforementioned facts pose a threat to the country’s socio-economic development. This idea contradicts what the article is saying about how the one child policy is hurting the people of China. And by stating that the women are happier not having a great number of children the writers are furthermore weakening their argument and disproving their point. And even though one might think that it is hurting the men of China, it’s the women who have to carry the child, give birth and mostly raise them not the fathers. ” And by stating the different sides of the argument, Peng is viewed as an honest writer and is therefore more appealing and convincing to the reader; this adds to the strength of Peng’s article. Through all these processes the policy has helped China to move forward by letting “the total fertility rate drop from 5.

Although Bogert’s “Rethinking Family Values” and Peiyun’s “One Family, One Child” are both interesting pieces, with opposing viewpoints on the one child policy in China, only Peng’s article provides a strong and convincing article, since he provides the factual evidence needed to support his opinion and carefully portrays it.
