Source #9

  1. What is your source?http://bigonsandbank.com/blog/chinas-one-child-law-leading-to-huge-gender-imbalances-2/
  2. Who is your source? "Big On Sand Bank"
  3. What are their credentials? I don't know what their credentials are.
  4. What does your source say about your topic?China is facing a huge gender ratio imbalance because the country’s one-child law has led parents to seek sex selective abortions, according to new research.
    China’s government imposes a one-child restriction on parents in an effort to control the country’s population, but a cultural preference for sons and cheap access to ultrasound scans has led to many terminating pregnancies if they are expecting a daughter, despite sex selective terminations being illegal in the country.
  5. Do you believe your source? I do believe the things that the source is saying.
  6. Why or why not? The things being said are merely predictions of what will come from the laws that are now in place, and it all makes sense to me, so I don't disagree at all.
