Shouldn't the author of this piece be concerned that boys will be aborted and neglected in favour of girls? It's interesting that the thought didn't occur to him or her. They already found evidence of this by mentioning the higher number of couples who try again after having a boy rather than a girl. It's not a huge leap to think they might not want to continue the pregnancy if it's another boy.

The Trump Administration Wants to Create an ‘Office of Remigration’ to Kick Immigrants Out of the Country
The notification says that the Office of Remigration “will also actively facilitate the voluntary return of migrants to their country of origin or legal status,” which is a key aim of remigration ideology.
European countries have been doing this for decades. Britain was buying one way bus tickets for Eastern Europeans 20 years ago. This article was heavy on opinion but light on facts.
I was expecting a much stronger argument based on the headline.
Personally I'd prefer regulation on how social media is structured and how algorithms operate. First thing I'd do is ban infinite scroll, which corporations like because it increases 'engagement' whilst harming the quality of the experience for their users.
This line suggests that parents place less value on boys and it's possible this will lead to them failing to vaccinate them or delaying seeking medical advice when they're sick. I haven't looked into it beyond that.
