In the context of the "Three-Child" policy, the results of a study on the child-rearing disorder rate of children aged 0-3 in China: 94.7% of parents have parenting disorders: high time cost, high economic cost, and high education cost

Under the background of the "three-child" policy, what obstacles exist for Chinese parents to raise children aged 0-3? "Rates of child support disorders in China under the 'three-child' policy: a national cross-sectional study, " BMC Public Health ( BMC Public Health ) published in March research," answered this question

Liu Min introduced that 0-3 years old is an important sensitive period for children's physical and mental development, and the development of this critical period is the basis for future development

The researchers analyzed the self-reported parenting obstacles and related factors of children aged 0-3 years, and the related factors of the greatest obstacle to parenting, which were self-reported by 4,406 parents of childbearing age between 18 and 49 years old

Obstacle rate of child rearing for 0-3 year olds: 94.

Factors associated with child-rearing barriers 0-3 years old: Women reported higher barriers to parenting than men; those with a college degree or above had higher barriers to parenting than those with a junior high school education and below; farmers had less parenting barriers than workers.

Factors associated with the biggest barriers to child rearing 0-3 years old:

High time cost: For women, those with an annual family income of more than 80,000 yuan, those who are willing to have a second child, and those whose husband and wife is an only child, the biggest obstacle to raising is more likely to be high time cost

High economic cost: For people with 2 or more children, those with an annual family income of less than 30,000 yuan, and those whose husbands and wives are not only children, the biggest obstacle to raising is more likely to be high economic costs

High cost of education: The biggest barrier to female parenting is more likely to be the high cost of education

Physical factors: For those who are willing to have three children, and those whose husbands and wives are both only children, the biggest obstacle to parenting is more likely to be physical factors

Liu Min said that when China's "three-child" policy was just promulgated, the results of this report provided a scientific basis for the government to formulate parenting support policies and supporting measures for children aged 0-3
