In birth boom provides temporary reprieve for nation’s falling population figure article the author talks about the situation of the population in Scotland. It mentions to that the number of births in Scotland increased more than the number of deaths, which is the first time in many decades. The recent statistic mentions to the number of the children who were born in Scotland in 2006. It is increased by 2.3 percent from the last year and it was the highest percent since 1998. Also the number of deaths decreased 1.2 percent. But the Scotland’s experts expect that the number of the population will not increase again in the future because of the number of Scotland’s old people. Toward to reforming the situation of the population and the shortage of skill the government allowed the students to extend their visas by two years after they graduated. Professor Robert Wright didn’t expect that the population would increase. He said the result of change the timing of birth caused the rise of births last year.

I believe that the ageing population in Scotland will effect the population in the future. So the government should find good solutions to help to increase the population in Scotland in the future. There are many ways to help to increase the population in Scotland in the future, like encouraging the parents to have more children, showing the benefits of getting married early and investing more money to preserve people’s lives from the diseases.

First, encouraging the people to have more children is one of the good ways to increase the population in any country. The government should find good ways to help the parents to have more children. For example, they could reduce the cost of children’s health insurance and schooling. These are important factors which affect the number of children the parents have, because it costs a lot of money today. When people see that they will not face any kinds of these problems when they have more than one child I think that will encourage them to have more than one child.

Second, encouraging the people to getting married early is one of the important factors which affect the child population. When the couple gets married early that will increase their opportunities to have more than one child. Furthermore it will be easy to take care of them. For example, they can encourage the people by showing them the difference between taking care of children when they get old or while they are not old and how it is easy to take care of children before the parents get old.

Third, today we see many people die at different ages because of many different kinds of hard disease, fore example heart disease, cancer circulatory disease and other different kinds of disease. Also we see many children died before their first day birth because of disease. So we should spend money to protect people’s lives from hard diseases which are affect the population rate in many countries.

In conclusion, Scotland is one of the countries which expect to face a decrease in its population in the future. The Scottish government should find good ways to solve this problem. The government should encourage the parents to have more children, shows people the benefit of getting married early and spend enough money to protect the peoples health from different diseases.
