     The small number of newborn babies.which has been caused by high prices and the changing social
situation of women ,is one of the most serious problems in Asia.When people talk about it,you can hear
a word  invented  in  Japan.  " DINKS " ,which  means  Double
Income No Kids (小孩) .
     In many major Asian cities like Seoul,Singapore,and Tokyo,the cost of a house is extremely high.
A young couple who want to buy their own house may have to pay about  $3,000,000 ( though prices
have fallen) .For a flat with one bedroom,one dining-room,a kitchen,and a bathroom,the couple will
pay about $900 a month.What's more,if they want to have a child,the child's education is very expensive.For example,most  kindergarten  charges  are  at least $5 ,000 a year.In such a situation,it's difficult to
afford children.
     The number of married women who want to continue.Working increases rapidly because they enjoy
their jobs.However ,if they want to have children,they immediately have serious problems.Though most companies allow women to leave their jobs for a short time to have a baby ,they expect women with
babies to give up their jobs.In short ,if they want to bring up children properly ,both parents have to
work,but it is hard for mothers to work.Indeed,women who want to continue working have to choose
between having children or keeping
their jobs.
     In a word,Asian governments must take steps to improve the present situation as soon as possible.
