The higher the birth rate, the higher the population count. The higher the population count, the greater the burden on the government to educate and provide for all of them. The larger the population, the smaller the slice of the pie every one of them gets, due to limited resources land can provide. Unfortunately, the leaders in China see them as a renewable resource that is expendable, human rights be damned. War, atrocities, poor health and a higher death rate due to risky job operations all help to keep the overall population manageable and in check. Death rates need to exceed birth rates, no other way around it, for everyone to live better.
We can all condone, or not condone whatever we want, but few of us will have any effect overall on the grand scheme of things.
