Teacher allowed to give birth in hometown ordered to abort in province where she works
A schoolteacher who gained permission to have an additional child in her hometown in one Chinese province has been ordered to have an abortion because the province where she is teaching has different rules, a family planning officer confirmed Tuesday.
Pregnant Qin Yi had a daughter with her previous spouse while her husband Meng Shaoping had adopted a daughter without completing required legal adoption procedures, Chinese media reported.
Now the newly married couple is not allowed to have their own child according to Guizhou province's regulations, the education bureau and health and family planning commission in Guizhou's Libo County said in a notice Monday.
Qin must have an abortion by the end of the month otherwise she will be fired from her job, said the notice circulated online and carried by a local newspaper, which reported that Qin was five months pregnant.
An officer from the county's health and family planning commission confirmed the case.
Qin and Meng applied for permission to have a child from authorities in Huangshan city in eastern Anhui province, where her residency is registered, said the officer, who gave only his surname, also Qin.
The authority is investigating whether Qin transferred her residency to Anhui earlier this year in order to gain permission to give birth, said the officer.
Anhui province allows couples to have a child if they don't have more than two children from previous marriages, whereas Guizhou only lets a couple have a child if there is just one previous child.
Different areas draw up their own family planning rules that fit into a national policy. In late 2013, Chinese government announced it would allow two children for families in which one parent is an only child, and different provinces and cities have implemented the change at different paces.
