* A government organization called: The Bureau of Morality. It retains control over most aspects of citizens lives, and in itself has other subsections, one being Child and Family Services.
* People aren't allowed to just have children. Courses must be taken before regular contact with a child is allowed. "We are not supposed to allow anyone who has not completed their Family & Morality class to have contact with a child."

* People now have Child-rearing scores. These scores determine your capability as a parent.
* Nerochips are put into people, presumably everyone since even celebrities and heads of state have them. They've also been around for a while since the chips have reached a fifth version atleast.
