Short filmTranscript
00:00I was born in China in 1985, a time when China's population crisis was making headlines around the world.
00:09In an effort to protect its people from starvation, China has enacted a policy limiting families to just one child.
00:24I never thought much about what the policy meant for me or anyone
00:28until I learned that I was going to be a mom.
00:31None of my family questioned the policy or how it was implemented.
00:59The Chinese government would come in and they'd bash down your house, take the child.
01:03I was taught to believe that the love of my country was equal to the love of the government and the party.
01:32I was so angry, even with my own family, that there wasn't more to be said or done.
01:41Everyone we spoke to said the same things about the policy.
02:02I wondered if most people in China really thought it was worth the sacrifices each family made.
