Q: How low can parents go in teaching their kids?

A little toddler was given a little spoon at the Muji store to play with. The parents gave the kid the spoon then proceeded to walk out the store like it was a 'free item'. 

 

Is that the lowest you've heard. I mean that is teaching your toddler how to steal in a way. Have you heard or actually seen any real stories that can be linked to future criminal behaviors?

  I don't know about criminal behaviour but my wife's grandmother used to tell her that if she didn't eat her dinner some witch from the mountains would come down at night and eat her. To my mind that's bordering on psychological abuse. Oh well, the wife's happy and successful now and that old bag is sick as a dog and getting ready to croak, so it's swings and roundabouts I guess.

TedDBayer:

Do you know if that witch from the mountains was good looking? I could skip a few meals.

Abusive parents are as normal as they can be in China. Brutal violence is directly conducted on the kids by their own fathers and mothers. Psychological abuse a lot also.

i was teaching a 6 year old boy , dont like boys anyway , but at 200 rmb an hour , i will , i told the mom and the school that an hour without a break was to much, but what do i know,

the tiger mom comes in while im teaching the spoiled brat, sorry my extreme bias is showing, and hits the kid with a slap that knocks him off the chair ,

i told the school and the mom to kiss my ass very nicely of course and left, it was a part time gig but the mom starting complaining at me as i walked out the door and tried to stop me from leaving, so i have this stupid idea that you dont hit a woman and cussing in english to someone who does not speak english does not work , so i just starting laughing at her hysterically like i was crazy and she let me leave.

some parents are really nuts and the kid want get english till grade 3 in public school anyway.

Scandinavian:

this country needs a law that allows the nearest other grown up to hit a parent hitting their child

the psycholgical damage some parents have inflicted on some students i have met is unreal. One Foreign Langauge student, with a clear talent for languages, suffers from a crippling lack of confidence due to his father's constant abuse from an early age: his father wanted him to to be good at Maths.

Success at any price attitude will destroy China - the dysfuctional nature of the latest generation of children and students will have serious consequences in the future

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
