What is the story of a 9-year-old girl seeking to protect her rights in a second child contract? How should parents communicate with their children about having a second child?

We see all kinds of contracts in our daily lives, but this is the first time I have heard of a second-child contract. With the country's relaxation of the second-child policy, many parents have the idea of ​​having a second child. My parents are preparing to have a second child, and a 9-year-old girl is drafting a "second-child contract" to protect her rights. What's going on? What is written in the "second-child contract"? How should parents communicate with their children about having a second child?

9-year-old girl seeks second child contract to defend rights

How will the older child feel if there is a little brother or sister? Although the little brother or sister her parents are talking about has not even appeared yet, the 9-year-old girl Xiaoxue (pseudonym) has already made plans - drafting a "Second Child Contract" to stipulate the rights and responsibilities of the four parties A, B, C, and D (father, mother, herself, and the future little brother or sister) to ensure that her rights and interests will not be damaged in the future. Recently, when seeing their baby daughter seriously taking out the contract for them to sign, Ms. Wang and her husband were surprised and couldn't help but smile.

Ms. Wang, 32, who lives in Yubei District, is an administrative staff member of a tertiary hospital. Her husband is 35 years old and is a staff member of a government agency. Their daughter Xiaoxue is in the fourth grade of elementary school. "My husband and I have always wanted to have a second child, but the original policy does not allow it." Ms. Wang said that she and her husband both live in a large family with brothers and sisters. They have a deep understanding of the deep brotherly love and mutual help among brothers and sisters, so they want to give Xiaoxue a brother or sister. "We mentioned it to her before, but the child was a little resistant." Ms. Wang said that her daughter has a high emotional intelligence. Even if she objects, her reaction is not fierce, she is just unhappy. The daughter is worried that having a brother or sister will take away the love of her parents and her living standards will be lowered.

As classmates in the class successively and excitedly announced the good news that they had a younger brother or sister, Xiaoxue finally agreed to welcome the arrival of the second baby, thinking that it would be a happy thing to have a little person chasing after her and calling her "sister" in the future.

But recently, when Xiaoxue took a handwritten "Second Child Contract" and asked her parents to sign it, Ms. Wang realized that her daughter had actually made sufficient preparations for the arrival of the second baby.
