(HBO) – The Hoa Binh provincial Department of Population and Family Planning has partnered with the steering committee for population and planning of Cao Phong district to hold a gathering of 40 local families whose children are all daughters with excellent academic performances.

Families whose children are all daughters with excellent academic performances in Cao Phong receive presents from the provincial Department of Population and Family Planning.

The event aims to increase the effectiveness of population and family planning communication campaigns and change people’s mindset on gender preference, thus improving population quality.

At the gathering, three all-daughter families shared experience in talking to other relatives about how a family should only have two children at most, even if they are girls, in order to provide the children with better care and education.

The population and family planning department also talked to attendees about the consequences of sex imbalance at birth, child marriage and consanguine marriage, as well as solutions to avoid getting pregnant with the third child.

The department later presented gifts to the participating families./.
