This article is very articulate about the problem.
This is a problem not just for China, but for the world.
As a dear Chinese friend of mine said to me many years ago, China is making a mistake sending its best and brightest. I have two Chinese daughters and I wondered at the time how they would feel being born into this time frame. Just a small difference one side or the other and they might have been with their first families. OTOH, Korea is still exporting children 50 years later. Using the word 'exporting' is not my word originally, but one spoken by adult adoptees.
