On a horrific video, a young Chinese girl experienced the wrath of her grandmother when she asked the old lady to buy her a pen. Instead of giving in to the request, the mean old lady repeatedly kicked and slapped her. An onlooker recorded the assault and posted it on Weibo, a social media site equivalent to Twitter. The post became viral, reports Daily Mail. The shrieks of the poor child could be heard during the three-minute video. The video-taker attempted to intervene and asked the grandmother what she was doing. The woman even shot back, "This is nothing. I use a stick at home." She even justified her action, saying, "If you don't hit her, she will go crazy." Other than kicking her granddaughter, the lady additionally took the young lady's cap and utilized it to beat the child. While the kid was sobbing the word "pen," her grandmother shouted, "Why are you asking for money? Do you still want the pen?" She only stopped the beating when cops arrived. Although the video does not indicate where in China it happened, the number of people passing and the exteriors indicate it could have taken place in a train station or mall. But, it was also noticeable that nobody among the passersby tried to intervene, which prompted some Weibo clients to remark on the lack of concern.
As I watched the video, my emotion was stirred. I don't know what the hell is wrong with asking some money to buy the thing that you need. This poor little kid doesn't deserve such treatment. I hope this post would help in spreading the awareness about child abuse. Kids of her age shouldn't experience such horrible thing. I hope authorities would soon come and apprehend the grandma of this girl to her a lesson.
