Topic1 Parents Unable to Get Euthanasia for ChildA couple in Anhui Province plea for euthanasia for their 1-year-old son, who is diagnosed with incurable1 brain atrophy2. However, the request was rejected by the local authorities as euthanasia is illegal in China. The parents are left with no choice but watching their boy in agony.
What happened to the boy? And is there a good reason for the parents to want euthanasia?
Topic2 Commutation of jail-terms through patents
remains3 problematicIt's been reported recently that some entrepreneurial prisoners are sidestepping life behind bars by applying for low-cost patents.
While cases of ex-officials behind bars making invention to earn commutation have recently made headlines, some patent agency websites are openly offering to help
inmates4 develop inventions and apply for patents in order to buy time off their jail sentences.
Why are we talking about it? Is it a big deal?
Topic3 Grandparents Who Look after Grandchildren Feel Over-anxiousUrban white-collar workers are busy working every day and hardly have time looking after their children. So, many turn to their parents for help. Grandchildren may bring lots of joy to the elders, but the responsibility is so huge for them that some have developed anxiety
disorder5.
Is it a prevalent problem?
Topic4 Why Chinese aren't great neighbors in the US?
More Chinese are buying houses in the United States.
But some of them aren't that welcomed in their new
residential6 communities. Neighbors'
accusations7 include a disturbing smell of stinky food and some Chinese turning the lawn into a veggie garden.
Why? Are Chinese terrible neighbors?
