Is it true that China's One Child Policy still exists?
No. A peer-reviewed article states the one-child policy ended on January 1, 2016, when all couples were allowed two children, and another review describes its replacement by two-child and then three-child policies. Other sources date the policy as 1979–2016 or describe relaxations, all indicating it no longer exists.
