One child Policy was very serious in China in order to control Chinese population. A couple can't have more than one child. During 1990s, the economy was very bad in China. Many People didn't have jobs, Including my father. Our family was punished seriously because we had two illegal Children. My Father had no choice. He came the U.S.A. to find a job to get money to support our family.
