I’ve read several articles recently about this unintended consequence of China’s one child policy. Chinese children are coddled and given everything they want on a silver platter from birth and many of them become so spoiled and entitled that they treat their own parents like little more than slaves. In other words think of our millenials magnified by a factor of 100. Makes you wonder what China will be like when this generation takes over...

The one child per family rule has created a generation of egocentric, self centered brats. Wait until they run the government; Mao’s bloodletting will look like kindergarten.

I wouldn't be too hard on a kid who starves her mother to death in China. Maybe the children under China's one-child policy are simply adopting their own one-parent policy.

/only partial sarcasm here/

They will be psychopaths and totally programmed (triggered)....incapable of empathy which is learned by being in unstructured loving homes with vertical “education”-—learning from moral mother and father (modeling their behaviors/roles) and learning to think for yourself—which gives integrity for your feelings/opinions (the individual). Dealing with siblings gives a giant advantage, older and younger (vertical structure is God’s Design for Learning and Autonomy (thinking for self) by practicing and learning rejection in a loving, humane environment and how to negotiate with all ages (Reality).

Horizontal learning was est. by the communists-—massive numbers compared to adults—all the same age so peer-pressure is used to great advantage (total brainwashing into irrationality)—is a set up for programming only (operant conditioning/Common Core)—to destroy individualism (thinking for self). Agency will be eliminated in such an evil system which is filled with neo-Marxist, neo-Freudian texts. The complete hyper-sexualization destroys identity formation and virtue in children-—making them into godless animals. (completely irrational). They embed unnatural, irrational emotions/desires in the controlled, programming ‘system” which naturally shames self-reliance, and groups (Marxism).

Children with no real life experiences which teaches self-reliance-—and is only programmed by screens, tubes, or strangers will not learn to trust, have empathy or connection to their own parents-—exactly like the Marxists/Mao wanted-—no biological connections-—all severed by the system which removes children from the Natural Family so “day cares” and other institutions create emotionally stunted “children” who will be dysfunctional, easily controlled/managed slaves for the System.

Virtue formation is necessary for Freedom and Civil society. The Chinese culture is programmed and has normalized an artificial reality-—where “family” is meaningless and not connected.

Profound human connections only occurs in Freedom and within the Natural Family-—destroy the Natural Family (no siblings/cousins/aunts/uncles) that have close ties with the growing children will be devoid of the embedded emotions and experiences which create meaning and true self-esteem.

Others and status—outer irrational superficiality—form her “sense of self”which is godless/unconnected with Reality and Truth—which is only garnered inside the Natural Family which should have at least 3 children, if not more.

Their system is set for suicide and complete slavery—no agency at all. Marxism denies agency (Free Will). (She is programmed to “kill” by the dehumanization-—lack of family interaction/love/connection).

The thing about starving your Chinese mother to death is that an hour later you feel like starving your Chinese mother to death all over again.

It’s not just two parents - it’s four grandparents. Traditionally in China, the parents work and the grandparents take care of the children. So now one child has six adults caring for them - and four of those are pretty much full-time dedicated to the kid (typically be retired and such).

It’s as if she ain’t gonna type anything at all, unless she’s fully committed to going to town on it, which she does.
