I had a fantastic night hearing Mei Fong speak at Garland. I was truly jealous of her work in the field and I felt that Mei was so knowledgeable on the One Child policy. The One Child policy is truly something of another world as we don't really imagine having that kind of restriction of freedom here in the US. We learned of all the different very personal stories of the One Child policy that were really impactful without even hearing it from the families themselves. Mei paralleled her own struggles with having kids to what was going on in China at the time. I'm interested to see the future of China with the new policy change and I'm very fortunate to see such a prominent professional on a very current issue of today.
