Mao Zedong made nothing to limit the size of the population. He wa from a farmer family, and in the countryside, one means two arms for the farm. In addition, he thank that the more China is populous, the more its weight in the wolrd could be more important.
But when Deng Xiaoping took the power in December 1978, he launched the "four modernizations" programm and opened China to foreign investors. But the rise of GNP was counterbalanced by the rise of the population, so It's the origine of the One-child policy.

What the main concern for older Chineses is, with the "one child policy" who will take care of them.
The poor new babies don't kown what will be their burden

Yes, no one seems to wonder who their sons will be marrying. What I find aggravating is that the dearth of females, FARRR from giving them a bit more leverage, is having the opposite effect. Kidnappings and selling of women for brides, look at India, a teenage girl was beheaded for refusing to sleep with all the bros of her husband. China of course is so vast that the policies of the government just don't extend to the countryside, it's business as usual. Sons to care for you in your old age. Nothing personal girls, just business, as the mob likes to say when they whack you.
