Passage 1
Over 70 percent of the “double single－child couples” in China need help from their parents in taking care of their own kids||， according to a recent survey.
Women of China magazine and a consulting company carried out a survey recently on young couples of the “single－child” generation||， the Morning Post reports. The couples surveyed were around 29 and have been married for three years on average||， with university education and monthly income of 4||，000 yuan($531). Among them||， 43.5 percent have kids.
Results show that 71.9 percent of the young couples have help from their parents in taking care of their kids.
Grown up as the “single－child”||， the only child in a family since the family planning policy which was adopted in 1979||， this generation depends much on their parents.
The parents of the “single－child” generation focused more on their children's physical well－being rather than their attitudes and values||， according to some psychologists.

Survey shows that 27.5 percent of them got married after dating for one to two years||， 25.2 percent two to five years||， and 20 percent didn't tie the knot until dating for five years. Also||， 30 percent of the couples were schoolmates||， while 43.8 percent were introduced by someone.
Since their marriage is based on enduring relationships||， 65.2 percent of the husbands and 62.9 percent of the wives think that compromise(妥协)and tolerance(宽容) are necessary in their marriage. Meanwhile||， 21.7 percent of the husbands and 37.1 percent of the wives support the idea that happiness is the key standard for a marriage.
