Sadly, Chinese customs force them to do as their parents say until they die. They're slaves to their parents until the parents die basically, so them demanding her to buy her brother that she NEVER MET an apartment is perfect legal grounds to sue the daughter they abandoned to the Chinese Cocksucking Party, so she's done being able to live a good life unless she enjoys the fact her parents can use her money however they want because of the fact they so happened to be the ones who conceived her with no way of stopping them. Every cent she makes is now her sperm and egg donors' retirement fund and means of buying the man who just so happens to have the same parents as her what he wants
I think everyone should be forgiven for your own sanity… so I think she should forgive them for not wanting her but accept the truth and not help them. I think that’s the most honorable thing to do
@Heeseungs5thMissingEarpod we have no idea what abuse is til we learned about it through social media from western cultures. We thought this is normal and we just live by it.
Well the majority of China is old people that much i remember so the laws r designed that way that it give elderly people the advantage so ya i don't think she can do that
The high parental respect thing or law in china is a great thing as alot of children sh*t on their parents but in this case the parents did not deserve any thing
I heard the aunt and uncle sued them for child support and basically forced them to drop it before the "settlement" passed, because it was higher than the original amount.
Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless. 😊😊
@@melosuccsLol you have no idea what you’re talking about. The credit card score thing in the USA is far closer to your fears about “muh social score” than anything else.
so much agree... something like this happened in Korea, where mother who abandoned her daughter get her daughters assets as inheritance. The law in Korea was changed after that
Weird thought to have to think her lawyer was incompetent. How up-to-date are you on Chinese law? Must be rather knowledgeable to make that statement lol
@@AzureRadio Okay buddy, you should stop being that ignorant. Do you also think social credit scores are real? Oh lord, you people are giving fuel to the fire when it shouldn't be on. ☠️
They abandoned their daughter and totally spoiled their son with everything who became entitled and wasted it all. He was supposed to become successful and take care of his parents, but he didn’t care, so they went after the successful daughter… Sad case…
@@average7374 - I have heard the whole story on this case - The son was favored and COMPLETELY SPOILED by his parents and felt entitled to his inheritance early- which he blew - then he blamed his parents for not teaching him how to manage money, so they took him back in - when they were all broke at that point- they legally went after the successful daughter …
Thats...not how it works there. The parents are always the parents and always have full control. They cant not be the parents. Ever. So they cant ever be required to pay child support since whatever they do or dont do is considered the best for the child
In Korea, there is an artist who commit su*cide due to depression. Her mother, who has abandoned her since she was a child, tried to claim her inheritance, but her brother, who grew up with her, had a legal battle with his mother and won. Because of that case, Korea decided to make a new law against parents who abandon their kids, preventing them from inheriting their property in the future.
Ikr? China always prefers boys because they're expected to care for their old parents... since that's the case... parents maintenance shouldn't apply to girl
@@starryskyhighway9628but if you check in history, daughters have always paid for their family. of course the dowry is paid, but it is the reason why they /her family/looked for "better husband" for a "better" life for her, but they, her family aka parents and brothers, uncles, etc, always demand her to help them with Intel or knowledge, and financial (always) to their family. Sons were just there to "protect" the lineahe family .mainly to keep the family name cuz it was their belief that only male could. Ironically, either female or male have the bloodline to continue carrying but it appears that the moment women married they kind of /forgot/ cuz it was beneficial for the patriarch to carry for just the one that would stay at home. This is why when we see a few powerful family that don't follow the norm, they were oppressed to follow or hated and would be battles cuz they were setting a bad example to the peasants.
In Chinese law it doesnt matter. The parents are always the parents even if they attempt to kill you or disown you or anything. This is because the Chinese government doesn't have the capacity to take care of all its elderly..and confucianism. Therefore, regardless of everything, it is the biological childrens responsibility for their biological parents and any extra they take on. Or you go to jail for the rest of your life.
This is chinese national law. This happens all the time in China, you are required by law to care personally and financially for your aging parents regardless of everything, even if they never saw you in your life. If you dont, you go to jail. Even if you cant afford it. The elderly are considered more important than the young always. Which is the backwards of nature.
They dumped her because she's a girl, the son is more important in Chinese culture. It was their priority that HE was cared for while she was a second thought. Thank God her Aunt raised her.
Yeah bro I don't understand this. If one day, I have a son and a daughter, I'm gonna raise them the same. It would be so mean to raise one better than the other.
You forgot to give ending that they won too. Court of course refuse their biological son to demand house from her but made her liable to pay her parents monthly alimony. Weird similar thing happened in India too, but here court thrown her parents in jail for risking their daughters life by abonding her at railway station. Their daughter become a famous doctor just like her adopted parents.
Her aunt and uncle turned around and sue them for child support to the tune of 1 million dollars. They essentially walked away signing they had no parental rights to her.
Im Chinese, I hear these types of stories so much and the court system is screwed up. I often hear they will favor the parents even if its horrendously unfair to the actual victim.
Yea, you are not Chinese Chinese, but are living somewhere else. You maybe moved or were born somewhere else, but you definitely not live in China; clue #1; you are able to connect to YT. clue #2; you just criticized the governement, clue #3; this is not deleted even after 3 months...
I hope the bio donors are shamed by the Chinese netizens. They should be ashamed. The filial piety laws are supposed to protect the elderly from neglect, not to be abused like this.
Yeah they're getting shredded in the Chinese media. Even their government media in English is talking about it. State sponsored media doesn't normally go out of its way to say anything critical of of the state but this was over the line and everyone wants it fixed.
Filial piety goes both ways.... Parents are supposed to care for children and ensure their welfare. Unfortunately huge portions of Chinese society are still extremely misogynistic, leading to situations like this, or instances where the daughter's marriage is viewed as a financial transaction to benefit her birthday family.
@@k.c1126Sons are also subject to the same issue. Even if they were abandoned, they owe a duty to their parents. This rule has nothing to do with her gender, but with cultural norms regarding filial piety. Similar stuff happened to boys that were abandoned during the one child policy that still became successful. A few years ago there was a lawsuit against a man who started a business in Europe (and left China decades prior) over similar claims, but as he had given up his Chinese citizenship and was a citizen of another country the family was told to pound sand. They found out he was rich because of a news article, and hadn't talked to him in at least 20 years, but if he still lived in China, he would have lost due to the duty towards ones parents. Chinese culture certainly has issues with misogyny, but not all issues are because of that. Rather, I would even argue that the assumption that it was misogyny was in and of itself misogynistic, as it reduces her to just a woman, rather than looking at all the factors.
@@matirion I've seen enough to agree with you on this. I was looking at this from the specific perspective of the woman in the story, but upon reflection I can see that male children might be subject to even greater pressure. While misogyny might be a factor in the case in question, I have to agree that the filial piety requirement is no respecter of the child's sex.
She had a good Aunty that raised her thank God for that. God Bless them. Her real parents couldn't care less about her and didn't deserve anything from her.
Even though they are good family, someone from the family told the neglectful parents and that's how the neglectful parents were able to sue. Though, my guess it was "through the grapevine" the other family found out. Would've been nice if there was proof shown that the Aunt was the caretaker the entirety of the woman's childhood. The parents are an example if they were not there in the child's life, because they chose not to be, then they shouldn't get to reap the rewards of the child they tossed to the aunt.
To think that the court forced her to reach a financial settlement with the same people that abandoned her is extremely disturbing. This may just give other parents the audacity to sue the kids they too have abandoned for assistance 🙄 😒 😤
Sadly China does not have a health care system in place for the elderly and boys have a legal obligation to provide for their families as they age. So this creates an incentive for wanting boys as a retirement plan. The girl has no legal obligation but then again, it is China, corruption runs just as deep as everywhere else.
Only a court that is obviously ran by criminals would litigate a case put forth by dishonest, disrespectful, disgraceful, morally bankrupt, and dishonorably monsters. The lawsuit should have been immediately dismissed and the biological parents should have been (and still should be) obligated to pay significantly for abandoning and neglecting their daughter all those years. Injustice makes me furious especially when it’s perpetuated by a supposed legal or justice system. There is a particular place of eternal anguish in hell for people that neglect and abandon children. But then to robe them after they have grown up is a deeper level of endless torment and regret that will never be resolved or forgotten.
What a shame. I’m so sorry for the daughter. I would think proclaiming a person you haven’t had contact with and abandoned them your Daughter. China need to review this injustice. Let her bio brother live with his parents who choose him over her. Another choice would be for him to work harder too.
He just had to follow the law. It's not the judges fault whoever wrote it did a bad job. Even the Chinese are pissed about it so I'm sure it'll get fixed.
@@abebuckingham8198the law is about kids supporting their parents. Not buying their parents son an entire ass house. 1 it's an entire house. 2. It's not even her parents that are getting it it's her brother.
I’m Chinese, I side with the daughter in this case. Like, I understand the fact that you need to respect your elders (it’s part of tradition and culture), but tradition at some point is meant to be broken. It’s so dumb how those parents, once realizing their daughter was rich and could afford an apartment for their relatives, came back, didn’t apologize to their daughter, and impolitely asked for money. To sue her like that? Nah what the hell?
I believe it is common sense to know who is in the wrong here. A child who was abandoned by their biological family or parents that didn't contact their own child for years and only come back for money..... But apparently Chinese government doesn't have those common sense
That’s so messed up. She have should been able to counter sue them for abandonment. My co-worker from Hong Kong’s parents wouldn’t pay for her to go to school and made her work, do chores, cook, and care for her little brother and them. She later put herself through school. Her brother got married and decided he and his wife should not have to work so the parents told my co-worker she had to pay for her parents, brother, sister-in-law, and nephews living expenses. China got it wrong. All those strong women carrying for themselves and holding up their families…
Parental maintenance should never be a child's responsibility. Parents choose to bring them into this world, the government should take care of the elderly. The kids don't have a say in whether or not they even want to be born!
Those people weren't parents. They were egg and sperm donors. Respect for this young woman. She had more going for her than most anyone in her family. Respect.
I'm facing a similar "parent" situation with my in-law. My late partner passed away but he had a settlement with the sity coming. She's trying to swoop in like she has been there for him his whole life and get control of his money!!! She abandoned him and he only kept her in his life as a source of income because he was an addict. She's trying to claim I have no rights to his estate. She only claims him after he has passed and is trying to say it's for his and mine children's interest. She called them "her grandchildren" when she has had zero involvement in their lives. People can seriously be the worst when it comes to money. The worst. 🤬🤬🤬
Were you married to him? If not then that money needs to be put in a trust so when your kids turn a certain age they can use that to get a head start in life as adults, from the little bit you've told us it sounds like they will need it.
@christinapomponio6452 we were common-law. Living together for two years. I'm supposed to get it but idk how it will work out. As long as my mother-in-law gets NOTHING I will be happy!!
That's what a sexist and extremely male-centered system will do. I'd assume Zhang was abandoned because the parents did not want a daughter but a (much higher regarded) son. Now that their son does not hold up to their expectations and exigencies as a bottomless retirement fund, they rediscover that girls can be of use after all, even if they've been abandoned. The entire charade is absolutely infuriating.
Yeah it is a trend in china were older black sheep sisters are more successful financially and are still expected to support their narcisstic parents and useless younger brother. I honestly doubt that most chinese parents love their daughters
It's much worse than that. The One Child Policy seriously fucked up Chinese society. There are about 30 million more unmarried men than women so it's extremely hard to find a wife especially if you don't have at least an apartment, Chinese families actually band together to buy apartments and houses for their sons. Also there's no support system for the elderly. Traditionally it was the duty of your kids to take care of you but that doesn't work if you only have one kid who has a spouse who is also an only child. The real estate market is crazy for a variety of reasons, but mostly because of the stupidity of the CCP. China has at most 20 years before a complete societal collapse.
@@datonenoob7165 The daughter wasn't good enough to be kept as a child but is now good enough to pay for the parents who didn't want her. The legal system supports that twisted concept, and the not so successful son can continue being not so successful while the girls keeps getting fooked over. It doesn't get more sexist.
What "maintenance" can be obtained for parents who put in nothing to raise her? Absolutely disgusting, I hope the neighbors mock their pathetic son as well for needing a bailout from his estranged sister.
How sickening... That daughter should sue those lousy parents- for emotional abuse, abandonment, and anything else that can be thought of... Just so disgraceful... 😠😠😠
This happened because someone talked. How did the parents find out about her buying an apartment for her cousin? You have to move in silence. They had no right knowing her business. 😢
I don’t think gender is the reason but probably because she was raised in a harsh environment it caucused her to work hard But just believe what you want
@@Pickledotnah man it was gender. The one child policy really revealed the gendered bias China had. There's countless girls that were trafficked after being born by the government itself because the parents wanted a son. It's really sad.
@@noemoesenpai9954 It's true but there is still hope for America. If they start to get honest with themselves about the guns and their poverty rate they have a fighting chance of staying relevant.
Well u don't had any choice if ur living in a COMMUNIST COUNTRY😒😒😒so yeah,I understand why it's makes no sense for us who's living in a Democratic country
That's how propaganda works. They don't tell you the good things so that you don't ask for them. People in China are much happier with their government than westerners are. I may disagree with how they choose to run things but they're clearly happy about it.
That's because you read too much of CIA's propaganda as they are using negativity about China to gather your consent for war against them, exactly like what these war mongers are doing to Russia and any countries in Middle East. A one person does something in China doesn't represent 1.4b humans in that country. Likewise a murderous president sitting in white house doesn't represent all of Americans living in USA.
Omg I know that in China parental respect is super high, but this is just SO UNFAIR. They're her biological parents who abandoned her and didn't care for her. As far as I and clearly also most of the comments are concerned she doesn't need to care for them either. They didn't raise Zhang so she doesn't need to take care of them when they're old, or of their son who she doesn't even know. This is so sad, and it makes me so angry. I'm so glad you chose to make a video about this story Andy, like you make videos about other similar stories, to spread awareness in the injustices of the world and its different cultures.
