丹麦中部城市一些幼儿园近期推出了一项难以拒绝的优惠服务,他们将在周四晚上免费提供两小时儿童看护服务,目的是为了让这些孩子的父母有时间多“造人”。当地幼儿园一位工作人员表示,儿童数量减少意味着幼儿园的前景堪忧,他们推出这项服务也是为了引起人们对低出生率加以关注。如果此举成效明显,幼儿园将考虑将其常态化。丹麦的人口出生率在全世界221个国家中位于第185位。随着老龄人口不断增加,丹麦将无力承担老年人的养老金支出和其他福利性补贴。受低出生率的影响,各地幼儿园从政府得到的资金支持也将被削减,从而导致该行业从业人员工作不保。
A group of nursery workers in central Denmark have made parents an offer that they might find hard to refuse.
They have promised to provide two hours' free childcare on Thursday evening, so that the parents can go to bed and make more babies.
Dorte Nyman of the Grasshoppers kindergarten in North Fyn said a lack of young children meant the future of local nurseries was uncertain.
She expected nearly half of the nursery's families to accept the offer.
"We have 42 children in the kindergarten, and we'll be looking after 20 tonight," she told the BBC.
Not all, though, are likely to use their free time for the intended purpose.
"Lots say: 'We'll bring our children to the party but you won't be getting any more children out of us!'" she said.
