Families whose children
are all daughters with excellent academic performances in Cao Phong receive
presents from the provincial Department of Population and Family Planning.

mindset on gender preference, thus improving population quality.
At the gathering, three all-daughter families
shared experience in talking to other relatives about how a family should only
have two children at
most, even if they are girls, in order to provide
the children with better care and education.
The population and family planning department also talked
to attendees about the consequences of sex imbalance at birth, child marriage
and consanguine marriage, as well as solutions to avoid getting pregnant with the third child.
