No, a lot of people in the world who live in poverty do the same. I watched documentaries where they have to treck muddy mountains and cross rivers without a bridge because the bridge was left on disrepair for many years. The children always suffer the most in these kinds of living conditions.
Jacob Summers since the (actually fairly true) stereotype comes from African immigrants who claimed to their children, correctly, that they had to walk miles to get to school, it’s actually very common.
@@darthyoda7657 I don't know either. I think it would take a complete moral overhead of every government leader in this world, so that they would consider theses situations. I don't believe that welfare was ever meant to be a career opportunity as it has become in America, but ppl like this little boy and his poor little grandma, his sis and his dad , are the ones who truly need it , unfortunately, some of these countries who make billions and spend billions on the most unnecessary things , will usually put thier citizens at the bottom of any list.
@@Any-Okra well stated. There are people who have so little who achieve so much. Perhaps we just need to start with oursevles and move towards a life of minimalism. I once heard a person say "The more we know the less we need."
@@darthyoda7657 no. Feeling of guilt or shame for things you have worked for is not something you should feel. You need to feel grateful, take pride in your hard work so you can have food and roof above your head. Never feel guilty or feel shame for being able to get food and sleep in clean warm bed. The only one who should feel shame is CCP that made this mess in the first place starting from Mao Zhedong.
Umbrella Corporation I got anxiety, was afraid of being in the house with my mother alone for years when I was three. I didn’t love her, I feared her. If I could turn back time to when she was a child to set an example of how to mentally discipline a child I would. Maybe beating is okay with some extreme circumstances but NEVER with a child.
"I remember she liked to beat me" this kid barely has anything to say about what her mom did for him except how she liked beating him up and then she leaves the family her very own husband and kids to struggle and survive all alone? What a shameful mother she doesn't deserve that name.
Naomi umber, as I said there are two sides of every coin, we shouldn't judge with out knowing the whole story. And yes she shouldn't have taken out her frustrations on her children
I know right? I love Markiplier but I plan to donate to causes such as this. While I'm sitting behind a dining table typing away at my new phone, I literally sit here and wonder, this boy has almost nothing. Well, giving away my stuff will be a start. I don't need anything else in life other than to help others like him. That's also one of the main reasons why I'm trying to become a Cardiologist not for money, but to make a difference.
he droped out of school too early, right now he wants that his children will at least have a an education (and who knows how much education is that) what a waste, gone backward one full generation, sad.
Joyce it's impossible for poor who drop education early become a rich in china,most of low level education people can only got salary for 1.5 dollars per hours and work for 12 hours a day, they are in desperate life tho
Donations don't do much just like for many of the homeless. What he needs is a better job, and one that doesn't pay for pennies. His location is part of the problem too, but he can't afford to work anywhere unless they give him a place to sleep too, and even if he were to look for work in a different area it would mean his family would go without food. He's stuck.
@@chicawhappa I do hope so, but it will be hard for him without a degree of some kind. I know for sure he will have to work much harder than those that are more fortunate than him. I really wish him the best, and many of those that are struggling in this world to make ends meet.
@@memma666 I'm glad they have a new home. I saw the video, I just haven't gotten around to it. I'm really hoping the mother isn't there because they got a new home or that she didn't have any other choice. I really wish the best for them. Thank you btw for letting me know.
Mom left and dad stayed. God bless this man. A true father and good person. Dont they have clothing donations in China? I live in Canada and the clothing donation bins are always full. How can the country where everything is made for the world not provide at least winter coats and a toque for the kids?
Almost every industry in china is foreign because it is cheap to establish one in there. If they don't want to pay the normal rate in their country, then they won't even consider to donate their stuff either. Sad reality
loonie moonie At least a billion people in the world live in conditions like that. There are much poorer countries than china and donations never fundamentally solve the problems. Although opening up factories in less developed regions is actually a much better solutions than donations. Without those factories china would have been one of the poorest in the world. Things did improve a lot tho. So nothing wrong with opening up factories in china
I came from one of these villages, poverty in China is out of your imagination, it’s kind of similar to poverty in Africa. You don’t even have a decent toilet, bathroom is a big hole, you have to grab buckets and go for water and go to the hills for wood to cook your meal. In my village there was only one little grocery, it was the side of a small room. No streets, nothing just mud, dust and houses. When is was dark you can’t even go outside because there weren’t any lighting, it was pitch dark. I remember the last time I went back to visite my granny, in the night I try to go to the bathroom and I couldn’t see a thing. China is still a third world country regardless of what they show you in TV, 90% of the Chinese people don’t have insurance or even a retirement plan. Donations ? There are even cities which doesn’t even know the meaning of that word since they never seen or had one of that kind of institutions. I lived in so many different countries around the world and I have seen many different sceneries of poverty in those places like in South America, the poor side of the country have at least some groceries shops or restaurants but in China, you have to call a car to take you to the closes town around 1 hour to eat in a restaurant since your village doesn’t have anything more that fields of rice, Houses and trees. And there was a school for 4 different villages, The kids had the walk around a hour around field of rices and bridges to go to classes...
It breaks my heart that all he remembers about his mom is that she would beat him and in the end he just still wanted her to come back. He doesn’t know it now but her leaving was probably the e best thing for them. Feel for the dad.
@ceejayjohnson7583 But its the truth. You dont know the whole story. We do not know what led him to those circumstances or his relationship with his mother
He wants his mom back for his fathers sake. He said.. he want his mom don't let his father looking for her. I thought his father is lovesick with his mother. Even though the boy hates her for beating and abandoned them, he still hopes she will comeback for his father.
@@enyindriyanti Then I hope the father recovers from this and focuses more on his child. It's really sad. Such a little boy thinking so much for his father...
Stay humble my friend. I think we all take our lives for granted thinking we don't have enough or make enough. Although it is hard.. we have to think of other counties that make 1000 or less a year. Bless his family and his heart. Where can I donate?
Dulce Gutierrez - When I watch videos like this I realized how frustrating my life is. I have to wait at least 20 minutes for my personal assistant to get me coffee or my lunch. I don't know if I can keep on living like this
Yea they tax the people so they can build a new sports stadium..that i have no intrest in. They keep people on prison with access to Tv and those on Death Row for years and make them pay taxes for it. Whats wrong in this picture?? When i go to the food bank i get a few rotten vegs/fruit and expired can goods worth 4 days - to 1 week..supposed to last 1 month?! Pathetic.. Id rather them donate it to the very poor and hungry. Not us spoiled. Most of the american hungry are so over weight (fat) they claim kids and then the parents eat it all. Another pathetic.
Bakti Halim Really? But I’ve only seen countries losing money because wars are so expensive. In fact Germany had to surrender WW1 because they lacked resources, and had to pay back 33 billion as reparation to cover all the damage they caused
In China, children are taught in such an atmosphere that they will be beaten if they don't do what adults ask. I was beaten a lot as a kid. Adults thought it was right to spank children, even to this day. Her family is poor, not enough to eat, will affect the mother's mood, children are more likely to be beaten. Because you grew up in a civilized country, it's hard to imagine. We always hoped that someone would save us, but when we grew up, we realized that the only way we could get out of that country was on our own.
10 years from now I want to hear this kid became successful and saved his entire family including his village from poverty. Ice Boy you are an inspiration 💪
yes! he’s gonna be handsome when he grows older. i can tell this is a beautiful wise family, but i don’t like seeing how they can’t even afford to groom themselves or get warm clothes, food, etc. that’d awful. i wish i can help :(
I feel so sorry for him I can’t imagine the pain the father feels seeing his children suffer regardless of how much he works. I wish I knew where to donate
Sara Anees: You have a very kind heart. Many Chinese people and the giant IT companies have offered to help. And I heard there is a new Chinese program to help under-previledged people develop skills instead of giving them money. Some people may prefer to be poor in order to milk the system (if there's always donations), although it's sad.
Wow... Looks like they are really Milking the System... Such a life... Stop lying silent watcher. you bring Shame to your family because the world can see that you are lying.

All wealth is built on poverty. Meaning everyone who accrues wealth does so on exploiting someone else and keeping them in poverty. If labor was as valuable as control, there would be no billionaires. No, I hope he grows up to pay no mind to capital and is 100% self-sufficient.
@Goodfight Broman There is a difference between a spanking and beating..... If your parents spanked you, you needed discipline. If your parents beat you, they needed help. No child should be beaten, that's abuse...
My mom used to be beat me oftenly because i was very naughty boy😁 i use to make problems daily in school and at home. I am grateful that she beat me because of that i got disciplined and have control on myself. Don't think it's like an assaulting or they beat with rage, parents beat kids just keep them in track for society.
bukuku assuming he doesn't get sick and die because they can't afford medicine But if he live through this then he will be stronger maybe not physically but at least mentally of living life poorer then most
BlueStar Gaming or maybe his mental health will be damaged and it will be nothing left than a depressed and sick person not being able to deal with all of it
@bukuku You make the whole situation sound like a good thing. What if he ends up just like his dad? I am sure his dad had an equally tough childhood. How well did that serve him later in life?
Abusing your kid & abandoning them... I understand not wanting to live in poverty but this person doesn’t seem to care or show any conscience or responsibility.
Every time it is published that there is extreme poverty such as this film/video shows, South China Morning Post th-cam.com/video/7IQH2HIVspg/w-d-xo.html Extreme poverty in China there are millions of people on our planet who first thoughts are, "If he were a real man he'd get a job", millions who simply tell themselves, "He is just lazy or something is wrong with him, the Father"... This is why it is so very critical that each and every time poverty is published we expose the underlying syndication of life and the criminal socialcast systems these countries have practiced for hundreds of years and now export to north America, Europe and Russia and netherlands... "This has nothing to do with religion nor color and not even cultural prejudice". It is our own willingness to cover up our own terrorist lobby gangs who run our governments under the guise of being elected. Poverty is a well studied and certainly very well known about raping of our humanity and until we can all agree to hold the "lords and land lords", of poverty manually responsible, NO...! river will ever be clean again. Even the genocide promoters & cash proud would have us support unspoken through continuing to blame the human victims for their own suffering and the murder of our planet's resources will only make the rivers run blood red and fix nothing as the inhuman cast system merely starts up again the next generations. Tell the truth & Stop weaponizing our children with lies propaganda and arrogant privileged few not the sufferers of poverty in general.... God bless you guys, my heart knows your difficulties but I as well have been kept poor dew to speaking out the ways I do and many others in North America. People... "Stop telling your selves you'll help once the threat of debit is personally conquered: ! We all know this would never be allowed to happen.... You may after great struggle or obscene luck gather wealth but not without equal or greater debit to swallow first"... Wake Up!! YVO
There is enough money in the world for nukes,fighter jets, tanks & missiles...... but not enough money to educate the poor,give them employment or the basic amenities..........
@Peichen Fang Superpower lol, I never heard that PRC has declared itself a superpower. Other than that, being an Chinese, you should know how corrupted local official could be.
And we are living in 21st century exploring mars and other planets and the sad reality people don't have basic necessities...feeling deeply sad for this child
NASA shouldn’t even be putting billions of dollars INTO space in the first place. We still haven’t even sorted things out, here. On earth. We still have world hunger, people who don’t have clean water, kids, and people like Wang’s family. Who are struggling to live, and live off potatoes. And other things that can easily be grown in the field.
Yea they might be smart on planet stuff but they aren't smart on how to help children or people Like we don't need to worry about f***ing Mars we need to worry about are earth first and then go worry about Mars
N0616JC Productions discrimination exists everywhere all over the world,not only in china. And in fact,after this news being exposed, so much attention have been attracted ,but they just focused and even over focused on this boy.the truth is that there are thousands of similar cases
Human born selfish, just look at our culture today even when we got food and money. We just want more and also being ugly when people get in our way even though we knew that we already have everything still fight for it. Sad for humanity
then where those donation coming from? I have been live in North America for quite a long time, Chinese are more compassionate, less aggressive and the discrimination is barely non-excistence compare to America.
I’m from Australia 🇦🇺 and I would love many of the kids over here to be in the same situation as this little boy just for 24 hours than hopefully they can appreciate everything they have! I really hate it when everyone wants everything and never think of the poor poverty was never a choice!!This poor little boy it’s so sad 😭 I pray he will be a success!
True we live in paradise i fear millions of poor Chinese will suffer in the coming crisis There is enough wealth now in China still the same story the elites live like kings The poor struggle just to live.
R Picifica me too. No one deserves this. But it’s the sad truth about reality... be happy in what we have. Contentment is what it takes to achieve inner peace.
This breaks my heart. He eats two meals a day and lives on rice and potatoes, and walks a total of 9km a day to and from school. I want to hug him and his family. Then there’s North Americans who live way out of their means and live a life of abundance, when there’s kids out there who just want to eat a warm meal and have warm clothes to wear. This is eye opening.
If there was direct access to them ..I am sure everyday even one of us ordered or shipped some food to them directly they would be soo happy and would be all ok
@@alienvomitsex you're a fool for holding such a view of the world. Poverty has always been a part of human history, and even in the richest of countries a failed harvest was all it took for the whole country to starve. What gave us the immense wealth you see today was capitalism and whatever poverty remaining is because of a lack of capitalism and free trade, not the other way around.
This video better be using it's revenue to fund that boy's welfare. The only thing worse than his life is others using his life to generate wealth for themselves.
NONE of the money is going to them and idiots are donating to the channel that created the donation page. Instead if they really cared they would teach the father to open a bank account and allow us to donate directly to him
well, certainly you don't understand China. Whenever such case is mentioned in any mainstream media in China and attracted public attention, the local-level government would be receiving enormous pressure to solve the issue. The "donation" to this channel would do very little practical help, because to solve the situation, local area needs infrastructures like roads, electricity, schools and new policies accordingly.
I know!! Is there anything we could to help this family? I would gladly donate/fundraise. But I know in china and other parts of the world, there are families and children who are in the same conditions and worse....
I come back and revisit this video every few months for a reality check, to remind myself how privileged I am in this world when there are families like this who struggle to live even the most basic of lives. Bless up 🙏🙏

Some of yall r really uneducated. China has a lot of ethnic groups and they usually tend to have their languages, as well as there is a lot of different regions with really different dialects, so it's not always that obvious that people (especially those who come from really poor families) can speak standard Mandarin perfectly, without any clear accent even if Mandarin is the language used in schools, offices etc. in China.
And here I am complaining about my commute to work. It’s videos like these that challenge me to become a human being who complains less and appreciate what I have more. God Bless that family with health and prosperity
Aqib Ejaz you obviously have a bitterness towards God that no explanation to your questions would change. So whichever the case is, me saying God bless that family is a way for me personally to hope better for them.
*No. Your commute is just as bad as this. Your lower back is getting ruined. Your metabolism is drifting off. You have to breathe in CO in every day. You could be sleeping. You could be exercising. You could be spending time with your loved ones. Instead you're getting tickets as you so much as fumble with your phone. Without muscles moving around, you become easily irritated throughout your day at work. It takes its toll. When people are in pain... it doesn't matter what "level" of pain you're at. Or what level of "disadvantage". Sometimes it's good to be grateful and just remain passive. Other times, it's okay to be mad at unjust circumstances and take action. If all of America were like Shanghai or Tokyo or London with their bullet trains and underground, none of us would be obese and car-dependent. And yet here we are.*

A lot of people are saying if you live in this situation then you shouldn’t have kids but let me tell you something, most people who live in poverty don’t have access to contraceptives and without any real kind of education most impoverished won’t think like you do. Research it
"Let my family eat well, dress well and sleep well." Such quiet earnestness in this beautiful child's voice.... May your simple wishes be fulfilled, sweet boy, and may your dreams find you.

Thank god for potatoes. They have been feeding a lot of lives. A lot of poor people have survived because of it. They didn't have anything else to eat and potatoes were very easy to cultivate.

Here is follow-up story:Ice boy made the headline on both Chinese national TV and major newspaper. The donation are pouring to him overnight by Chinese people. He received new clothes, toys, books, food etc. From an interview he did, he said he likes si-fi stories, likes play basketball, wants to become a police officer to catch bad people:) the donation probably won’t change his life but the education will. He is a very good student and local and higher government is financing his school to create a better educational environment for all the ice boys and girls. :)
For those who remember the propaganda films in the 50s of happy harvesters in the China fields looking all ruddy, well fed, cleanly dressed and well rested singing praises of Mao and condemning Confucius, nothing really changes in communist culture.
Erin Chung correct me if i'm wrong but i think is pretty Common for the chinese government to keep most of donation given to poor people (sorry if there are some spelling errors I'm spanish)
Sometimes I wonder how homeless women or girls living in extreme poverty deal with periods. If I cry from cramps I wonder how they feel without enough money to buy the products or pain killers they need.
Most often times than not, the last thing you will ever remember is pain from the cramps. The first thing and only thing you think about is hunger pangs that never goes away...I heard that from a young girl when I was a volunteer before. It broke me...
This boy needs a faithful dog and a sled in this tough situation. I hope more than life comes for him in aid. Such a strong soul carrying a huge weight of acceptance.

No, I am not. I think got me wrong, I said that the kid is too poor, does any girl really wanna take him? Especially in China where girls really loves the idea of having an extremely rich husband. I see the kid as a very cute and is trying hard to change his life the way around. I do hope the kid the best. And don't get so easily butthurt of a sarcastic comment.
And that comparison is an apt one to make. The Chinese Americans have always been a constructive, positive force in both American culture and American life. We should compare our minorities. Qui lai!
They speak really good Chinese. They're poverty stricken but they're not uneducated. Which is what I don't understand. Because I know for a fact there are villagers who don't speak mainland Chinese that well but are millionaires due to selling and manufacturing or producing raw materials needed. Some people have all the luck while others are really struggling. I wish them the best.
Their Chinese is Mandarin from the choice of words but their dialect is not really that... easy to understand to put it mildly. They are far away from "good Chinese" but you can undrestand them, there's far worse dialects.
TheDragiix3 i find it easy to understand. Their dialect isn’t that difficult to understand compared to other ones. Maybe because Mandarin is my first language

Donations are only temporary solutions. The real changes happen when the government and its people all work together for a long term solution. And then again, these donating websites/organiztions more than likely keep 95% of the donations and give the rest to the people who need it.
Ye Duan lol then how are Chinese citizens so rich lol. There’s only like a couple percentage of poverty in China but you’re obviously gonna still say a lot because China has a population of 1.3billion and the higher the population the higher the percentage

This kid is the only person who can truly tell his children he walked miles to get to school.
No, a lot of people in the world who live in poverty do the same. I watched documentaries where they have to treck muddy mountains and cross rivers without a bridge because the bridge was left on disrepair for many years. The children always suffer the most in these kinds of living conditions.
@@jacobsummers3441 fair enough
I used to walk 5 km every day to go to school , that's a 20 minutes walk , but that kid shouldn't have to endure cold without proper clothes
Jacob Summers since the (actually fairly true) stereotype comes from African immigrants who claimed to their children, correctly, that they had to walk miles to get to school, it’s actually very common.
@@billysinge8977 yeah, my mothers chinese and they lived in the country back in the 70s they also had an hour long walk to school everyday
Even inside the home is so cold you can still see his breath, this makes me feel guilty for everything I take for granted
That's exactly how we should feel and do what we can to create solutions. As to what those solutions are, I have no idea. Any thoughts?
@@darthyoda7657 I don't know either. I think it would take a complete moral overhead of every government leader in this world, so that they would consider theses situations. I don't believe that welfare was ever meant to be a career opportunity as it has become in America, but ppl like this little boy and his poor little grandma, his sis and his dad , are the ones who truly need it , unfortunately, some of these countries who make billions and spend billions on the most unnecessary things , will usually put thier citizens at the bottom of any list.

@@darthyoda7657 no. Feeling of guilt or shame for things you have worked for is not something you should feel. You need to feel grateful, take pride in your hard work so you can have food and roof above your head. Never feel guilty or feel shame for being able to get food and sleep in clean warm bed. The only one who should feel shame is CCP that made this mess in the first place starting from Mao Zhedong.
the fact that an 8 year old is saying that his mother that left them in a freezing shack and LIKED to beat him is sickening. Truly horrible.
Either way, beating is unacceptable.
Umbrella Corporation why?
Umbrella Corporation
I got anxiety, was afraid of being in the house with my mother alone for years when I was three.
I didn’t love her, I feared her.
If I could turn back time to when she was a child to set an example of how to mentally discipline a child I would.
Maybe beating is okay with some extreme circumstances but NEVER with a child.
Umbrella Corporation and that’s your own experience as well. just because you turned out fine doesn’t mean it’s okay to beat children.
@Umbrella Corporation no child deserves to be beat and I'm sorry you had to go through that and were brought up to think that it's acceptable
"I remember she liked to beat me" this kid barely has anything to say about what her mom did for him except how she liked beating him up and then she leaves the family her very own husband and kids to struggle and survive all alone? What a shameful mother she doesn't deserve that name.

Donations don't do much just like for many of the homeless. What he needs is a better job, and one that doesn't pay for pennies. His location is part of the problem too, but he can't afford to work anywhere unless they give him a place to sleep too, and even if he were to look for work in a different area it would mean his family would go without food. He's stuck.

Dont they have clothing donations in China? I live in Canada and the clothing donation bins are always full. How can the country where everything is made for the world not provide at least winter coats and a toque for the kids?
Almost every industry in china is foreign because it is cheap to establish one in there. If they don't want to pay the normal rate in their country, then they won't even consider to donate their stuff either. Sad reality
True
loonie moonie At least a billion people in the world live in conditions like that. There are much poorer countries than china and donations never fundamentally solve the problems. Although opening up factories in less developed regions is actually a much better solutions than donations. Without those factories china would have been one of the poorest in the world. Things did improve a lot tho. So nothing wrong with opening up factories in china
I came from one of these villages, poverty in China is out of your imagination, it’s kind of similar to poverty in Africa. You don’t even have a decent toilet, bathroom is a big hole, you have to grab buckets and go for water and go to the hills for wood to cook your meal. In my village there was only one little grocery, it was the side of a small room. No streets, nothing just mud, dust and houses. When is was dark you can’t even go outside because there weren’t any lighting, it was pitch dark. I remember the last time I went back to visite my granny, in the night I try to go to the bathroom and I couldn’t see a thing. China is still a third world country regardless of what they show you in TV, 90% of the Chinese people don’t have insurance or even a retirement plan. Donations ? There are even cities which doesn’t even know the meaning of that word since they never seen or had one of that kind of institutions. I lived in so many different countries around the world and I have seen many different sceneries of poverty in those places like in South America, the poor side of the country have at least some groceries shops or restaurants but in China, you have to call a car to take you to the closes town around 1 hour to eat in a restaurant since your village doesn’t have anything more that fields of rice, Houses and trees. And there was a school for 4 different villages, The kids had the walk around a hour around field of rices and bridges to go to classes...
Even if there is a clothes donation the greedy ones are just gonna take them and resell it
It breaks my heart that all he remembers about his mom is that she would beat him and in the end he just still wanted her to come back. He doesn’t know it now but her leaving was probably the e best thing for them. Feel for the dad.

@@jamesandrews4217 It's like people dont even watch the video before they decide to comment :|
In China, children are taught in such an atmosphere that they will be beaten if they don't do what adults ask. I was beaten a lot as a kid. Adults thought it was right to spank children, even to this day. Her family is poor, not enough to eat, will affect the mother's mood, children are more likely to be beaten. Because you grew up in a civilized country, it's hard to imagine. We always hoped that someone would save us, but when we grew up, we realized that the only way we could get out of that country was on our own.

you can't really. Any money you would give would be confiscated by the Chinese government.
Yep, the man himself just said that the donations didn't make that much of a difference in the video itself, unfortunately.
Sara Anees: You have a very kind heart. Many Chinese people and the giant IT companies have offered to help. And I heard there is a new Chinese program to help under-previledged people develop skills instead of giving them money.

I am grateful that she beat me because of that i got disciplined and have control on myself.

Every time it is published that there is extreme poverty such as this film/video shows,
South China Morning Post th-cam.com/video/7IQH2HIVspg/w-d-xo.html Extreme poverty in China
there are millions of people on our planet who first thoughts are, "If he were a real man he'd get a job",
millions who simply tell themselves, "He is just lazy or something is wrong with him, the Father"...
This is why it is so very critical that each and every time poverty is published we expose the underlying syndication of life and the criminal socialcast systems these countries have
practiced for hundreds of years and now export to north America, Europe and Russia and netherlands...
"This has nothing to do with religion nor color and not even cultural prejudice".
It is our own willingness to cover up our own terrorist lobby gangs who run our
governments under the guise of being elected.
Poverty is a well studied and certainly very well known about raping of our humanity and
until we can all agree to hold the "lords and land lords", of poverty manually responsible,
NO...! river will ever be clean again.
Even the genocide promoters & cash proud would have us support unspoken through
continuing to blame the human victims for their own suffering and the murder of our
planet's resources will only make the rivers run blood red and fix nothing as the inhuman
cast system merely starts up again the next generations. Tell the truth & Stop weaponizing our children with lies propaganda and arrogant privileged few not the sufferers of poverty in general....

And here I am complaining about my commute to work. It’s videos like these that challenge me to become a human being who complains less and appreciate what I have more. God Bless that family with health and prosperity
Why does God need a reminder from you to bless that family? Is he unaware? Or that he knows but doesn't give a damn?
Aqib Ejaz you obviously have a bitterness towards God that no explanation to your questions would change. So whichever the case is, me saying God bless that family is a way for me personally to hope better for them.
+rebecca molina There's nothing wrong in hoping for the better. Just that we don't put our hope in the hopeless.
*No. Your commute is just as bad as this. Your lower back is getting ruined. Your metabolism is drifting off. You have to breathe in CO in every day. You could be sleeping. You could be exercising. You could be spending time with your loved ones. Instead you're getting tickets as you so much as fumble with your phone. Without muscles moving around, you become easily irritated throughout your day at work. It takes its toll. When people are in pain... it doesn't matter what "level" of pain you're at. Or what level of "disadvantage". Sometimes it's good to be grateful and just remain passive. Other times, it's okay to be mad at unjust circumstances and take action. If all of America were like Shanghai or Tokyo or London with their bullet trains and underground, none of us would be obese and car-dependent. And yet here we are.*

I'm come from poor family, we had to live in one room with four people, but my mom made sure me and my sister eat enough and sleep good by working over 12hours everyday, my dad didn't do much about supporting his family, I have been broke for most of my life time but that taught me how to make everything by myself, I taught myself English, traveled world,now I'm building my business, have dream, believe it, educate yourself, the sunshine will be there.

That's amazing 👍

A lot of people are saying if you live in this situation then you shouldn’t have kids but let me tell you something, most people who live in poverty don’t have access to contraceptives and without any real kind of education most impoverished won’t think like you do. Research it
pull out is free.
Commander Erik not always successfully
The reason of making kids for them is that there is no pension scheme. The mentality is when the kids grow up, they will take care of the older ones.
VuurwerkZaak no it isnt and that makes absolutely no sense. You have no idea why they have children

"Let my family eat well, dress well and sleep well." Such quiet earnestness in this beautiful child's voice....
May your simple wishes be fulfilled, sweet boy, and may your dreams find you.
This broke my heart , knowing we have so much store up in our homes and someone can't afford simple clothing.
And he is still so happy. We have EVERYTHING in life and yet we never stop complaining. We could have been him but we have been blessed to live the life we are living. Absolute blessing. Never gonna complain about the 1 hour bus journey to school ever again
This boy deserves more. His dedication to passing school is amazing.
There’s millions of kids living in the same poor conditions as him.
Thank god for potatoes.
They have been feeding a lot of lives. A lot of poor people have survived because of it. They didn't have anything else to eat and potatoes were very easy to cultivate.
Don't forget the Irish famine if there is blight theres a high chance they could die.
Proof that potatoes gives happiness & save lives although they only look like a "potato"
Rafa Rodhes you shouldnt depend on potatoes though
thank evolution ..
Rafa Rodhes yes i ate lots of potatoes and beans. This is real poor not american poor
this is so heartbreaking.. little boy, how are you and your family doing today? I hope you won't hate life even if it gives you painful and hard things..believe T.T
Yes.
I really hope his family is doing better now, relocated to some place better, with the cat. Hope hes not forgotten.

The strength of that father for not giving up is motivating.
Here is follow-up story:Ice boy made the headline on both Chinese national TV and major newspaper. The donation are pouring to him overnight by Chinese people. He received new clothes, toys, books, food etc. From an interview he did, he said he likes si-fi stories, likes play basketball, wants to become a police officer to catch bad people:) the donation probably won’t change his life but the education will. He is a very good student and local and higher government is financing his school to create a better educational environment for all the ice boys and girls. :)
FunChina GL yeah, I totally agree but in the video the dad says the donations haven't helped very much. Where the hell did all the donations go?!
good to see the chinese give a shit
For those who remember the propaganda films in the 50s of happy harvesters in the China fields looking all ruddy, well fed, cleanly dressed and well rested singing praises of Mao and condemning Confucius, nothing really changes in communist culture.
Good to hear 💕
Erin Chung correct me if i'm wrong but i think is pretty Common for the chinese government to keep most of donation given to poor people (sorry if there are some spelling errors I'm spanish)
Sometimes I wonder how homeless women or girls living in extreme poverty deal with periods. If I cry from cramps I wonder how they feel without enough money to buy the products or pain killers they need.
Pain is one part of it. Try to deal with hygiene when you can’t afford tampons nor shower...
All the blood must be terrible
Use cloth. Then wash the cloth
Most often times than not, the last thing you will ever remember is pain from the cramps. The first thing and only thing you think about is hunger pangs that never goes away...I heard that from a young girl when I was a volunteer before. It broke me...
When I was homeless I was lucky enough to be near public toilets that provided toilet paper 😅
This boy needs a faithful dog and a sled in this tough situation. I hope more than life comes for him in aid. Such a strong soul carrying a huge weight of acceptance.
The dog will die, there isnt shelter for dog and no meat.
A hero working for his family. Family is everything. His wife is a coward leaving her family in hard times. You try ur best for ur family and share good or bad with them. At least for me

I just shared it with my daughter who wants everything for Christmas.
What was her reply to the video?
@@jimmoefoe1471 My guess is she probably still wants everything
Sge needs to be greatful of what she already have and donate to people in need
Privledged kids wont understand the hardships of others because they probably haven't developed mentally enough to process what others are actually going through. It's not a bad thing it's just because they're young.

At least he will honestly be able to tell his children "I used to walk for miles up a mountain in the snow to get to school"
The question is, can he even have kids?
Poor boy man
Bree S....I truly don't understand, after watching this video of deprivation and hunger and poverty, that you would make such an ignorant facetious comment. Please do explain the reason behind it. Robert.
@falchio....are you asking if he will have the opportunity in later years to find a wife and have children? Who knows? Otherwise, you are a stupid ignorant fuck. Robert.
No, I am not. I think got me wrong, I said that the kid is too poor, does any girl really wanna take him? Especially in China where girls really loves the idea of having an extremely rich husband. I see the kid as a very cute and is trying hard to change his life the way around. I do hope the kid the best. And don't get so easily butthurt of a sarcastic comment.
I just realized that whatever that this kid dreams to have someday is something I had ever since I was born...
This is why asians value education so much. The only way to escape these living conditions is through education. Truly a model minority
Old Girl chill tf is your problem
Old Girl Exactly 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@Old Girl shut up blackey Chinese are the majority but you will still complain and live off welfare
Old Girl PREACH
And that comparison is an apt one to make. The Chinese Americans have always been a constructive, positive force in both American culture and American life. We should compare our minorities. Qui lai!
They speak really good Chinese. They're poverty stricken but they're not uneducated. Which is what I don't understand. Because I know for a fact there are villagers who don't speak mainland Chinese that well but are millionaires due to selling and manufacturing or producing raw materials needed. Some people have all the luck while others are really struggling. I wish them the best.
Their Chinese is Mandarin from the choice of words but their dialect is not really that... easy to understand to put it mildly. They are far away from "good Chinese" but you can undrestand them, there's far worse dialects.
TheDragiix3 i find it easy to understand. Their dialect isn’t that difficult to understand compared to other ones. Maybe because Mandarin is my first language
So in China, only knowing Mandarin determines whether you're educated or not?
"Let my family eat well, dress well and sleep well.'' Now that's an admirable wish.
Seems we all strive to have that luxury.. ❤️
And people in my country lick the feet of billionaires :( a single paycheck of mine could give these people such respite. Imagine what Jeff bezos could do for these people with a simple flick of the wrist. Kind of makes it evil that they don’t. Great power great responsibility

Donations are only temporary solutions. The real changes happen when the government and its people all work together for a long term solution. And then again, these donating websites/organiztions more than likely keep 95% of the donations and give the rest to the people who need it.
Chinese government is even worse than US government...
Lol chinese government working together with prople
That's how charity works
Ye Duan lol then how are Chinese citizens so rich lol. There’s only like a couple percentage of poverty in China but you’re obviously gonna still say a lot because China has a population of 1.3billion and the higher the population the higher the percentage
Someone might dont like my words, but China gov is doing some extremely helpful things to the proverty people.
I'll never understand how people who do the most practical and important work like producing food, cleaning waste, teaching and taking care of children and the infirm, are the ones who suffer most. The idea of a poor farmer or caretaker is beyond me, esp when you can get paid 100s of millions to throw a ball through a hoop or rap about the same bullshit on every track. This is the root of the human condition.
Trooo. 💔
Same as being paid to swim and snowboard...so what's your point...cuz last i checked these are all talents same as being a farmer etc
