In Estonia, families are rewarded for having more children. The larger the family the more money they receive. This, combined with other financial benefits and a year-long paid maternity leave, has helped birth rates to rise, and could be improving or at least stabilizing the economy. Countries like China are struggling to recover from declining birth rates because of the one-child rule that was dismantled in 2016, according to The Guardian. For 37 years people were only allowed to have one child per household, but now the limit been raised to two.
