国家地理:China's Lost Girls 被抛弃的女孩 -10(在线收听) |
Boys and girls are equal, but it could take generations to change centuries of tradition. The abandonment of baby girls isn't the only consequence of the one child policy. When a child doesn't have any brothers and sisters, something else may happen. Do you think you are a little spoiled at all? No Some kids in China are getting spoiled and they are getting fat, so-called fat reduction centers are popping up all over China. Why do you do the acupuncture, what does the acupuncture do? He will not, he will not feel very very hungry. And maybe even at noon. Do you think many of the younger kids who are coming in because they are the only child, are a little spoiled? En yes. Some people think that because most families only have one child that the parents will let them eat anything they want. And they, they become a little spoiled, what do you think about that? The old generation has suffered a lot. They want us, their kids to have everything, to be able to eat anything. Now time to do the morning exercises. And they actually have a saying in China, they characterize only children who are somewhat spoiled and that is Little Emperors. I wanted to say that, when... when I was adopted from China, er I felt very lucky and now I realized that if I say something very nice, maybe another kid can come back and brought, be back and with the family brought to America. As we travel across China, the growing gender imbalance is evident everywhere. And I left, wondering, what their future holds for this country and its daughters. We meet up with our families down in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong Province in Southern China. This is Guangzhou, China, and it's the last stop for American couples who have adopted Chinese kids. No matter where they have been throughout the country, they all have to go through Guangzhou and their next stop after a couple of other stops, er, like Beijing and Hongkong and so on, is the USA. The American consulate here gives them the final papers to bring their daughters back to the US. Right next to the consulate is the White Swan Hotel, we see hundreds of Americans here with their new daughters. It's the last stop before bringing their children home. A week ago, these little girls were the most discarded members of Chinese society and within a couple of days, they are gonna be in Alabama, in Texas, in Wisconsin, in Michigan and they are gonna be Americans. Here's your visa. Yeah. Reese Hello, this is your baby sister's visa, I check it, I think it's perfect. Here's your passport. Congratulations. Thank you. You've got passport and everything. I have to tell you that I am shocked by the transformation of these babies, I mean, this one was terrified the first couple of days. Absolutely terrified that it scared me. Do you know, 'cause you just think of that moment like how's a baby gonna adjust. And now look at her. She's a happy baby. Bye guys. Have a safe flight. Bye. Well, the Hawls are leaving China today. So the next stop is Hongkong, and then Tokyo and then Atlanta. Come on. Thank you so much for everything. Bye-bye Lisa. And send me another sequel to Charlie's Angels. Stop it. This is as far as we can go. Oh, you want to say goodbye. You say goodbye to China. Goodbye. Bye China. Marissa and her sister Reese are now American girls. And Atlanta Georgia is their home. Handing her over. They leave behind a swelling tide of young boys who outnumber girls and in orphanages across China, tens of thousands of abandoned girls who await an uncertain future.
