I have to credit the Betty Ford Center, because I went there because of my dependency on painkillers and they were the ones who helped me peel off these layers of anger and gave me the tools to live with it and accept it and move on with my life...

(Blind rural activist Chen Guangcheng made international headlines in 2005 for exposing just such a campaign by family-planning officials in Eastern China; he was later imprisoned on charges his supporters say were retaliatory.) The law also offers longer maternity leave and other benefits to couples that delay childbearing. Those who volunteer to have only one child are awarded a "Certificate...
