Everyone is feeling bad but you can't imagine the pain this guy goes through to see his daughter like that.
Mi suddha Rushikesh
Yep
True, my son is only two months old & although I'm a stay at home mom; I live with "mom guilt" constantly over the smallest things. I can't imagine the pain he goes through watching his daughter everyday via a camera but most families still need to do so to provide not only for the family they have built with their partners but also the elderly in both families.
@fairy wishes i get your point, but how are broke people supposed to have offspring then, theyll have to marry into a decent family at least. I'm not defending actual gold diggers or anything, I'm just saying broke people would like to have offspring as well, through any means they can get
As for some women being called gold diggers when their not, i can do nothing or say nothing about it
True
Phew, I thought the girl's parents are dead. It went from being really sad to really sweet
At first I thought it was the parents who left their kid behind and I almost cried because the girl was pleading for them to come back
@@TypicalSiblings same lol
The kid is sweet. Her situation is heart breaking.
@@TypicalSiblings same i thought she was left infront of a store lol
@@TypicalSiblings i thought same too
Bless the manager for giving him a few days off to spend time with his daughter. Many would have ignored and not offered any time off.
That's true
Indeed bless the manager for the kindness that gave the family time.
Maybe, it's because the video went viral. I wonder if the boss would still let him go if the video was shown privately. The word I am thinking is 'Publicity' here.
@@SeikaChujo Very unlikely. In such cases people are replaced within one day.
@@SeikaChujo people love the hype of viral stories and to say they helped said person. I've seen it myself with personal and experience and many others. When the dust settles most favors disappear but I'm sure there will always be a small percentage of people willing to help with no recognition in return.
People always talk about how parents love their kids. But they forget that kids love their parents too. Unconditional , unfiltered innocent love.
that's heartbreaking, never being able to see your kids and having your kids shout at a camera to call to her parents.
I was thinking the exact same.
Why are people in China so desperate for boys instead of girlsB
@@yslee1401 Because of old generational mindset.
They can see their kids, but they choose not to and live in a different city to leave the poor elderly grandmother to bring up their child. It's the child that deserves sympathy, not the parents.
@@NilSatis82 they freaking work in another city, they had to. My mother always worked far from home but that's cause she didn't have the choice.
Props to his boss, immediately giving him a day off to spend time with his child.

This is heartbreaking but the father has no choice but to leave her and get money for the family. There's sometimes no easy way out
idk the situation very well, but how come the daughter just live with them in the cities and have the grandma moves in with them to look out for the kid while they go to work?
@@francistran432 its probably significantly more expensive to get a home in the city than in the hometown
@@francistran432 too expensive and they will end up without any savings. Besides, large cities in China usually forbid children without hukou to get free education or paid education
@@xg3068 what is hukou?
@@zrdm6091, don't they already live in an apartment tho? But again, idk their living situation to say anything. Just curious.
It may be heartwarming but no one knows how sad any parent would feel when they hear their kids calling them but cannot do anything.
T_T
I'm 22 And I'm not parent but I can understand his feelings It breaks heart into million pieces can't hold my tears
That’s so heartwarming to see the parents and the child together.
Yeah I agree
But they are not together. It is heart breaking to see parents and children in that situation.
But they have no choice. To bring food to the table, he has to work, no matter what. I hope one day they can play with each other for the whole day
@Pras Krom Don't hate people and for sure not races.
@Pras Krom why tf would you hate an entire race of people, you’re insane.
I have a daughter of the same age. This hits HARD. Every day after work all i want is to go home and see my wife and my kid.
I cant imagine watching my daughter asking for me and her mom yet we couldnt be there and hug her. That would tear me apart.
Awweee. I hope your family is happy.
sane bro
Same here
I don't have any kids but I am a young girl too and I always waited for my parents to return from work too. And hugging them was the best part of my day :)
ur a great dad. Wish it was the same in my life. I wish the best for u and ur kid, ik they feel the same abt you 🙂
This is so heartbreaking. I hope the father gets a job in his hometown.
At 1:54 he explains how working in his hometown wouldn’t make enough money. My guess is he lives in a rural area which makes sense
You know how we are literally pushed to work in different places because of higher wages. Certain areas just don't pay enough or as much as other areas for your expenses, a baby needs a lot of things so I get why they need to go.
I live in a rural area and my dad used to work 500km away from us and I only got to see him on weekends. It didn't happen when I was a baby but it did when my sisters were
@@disneygirl8694 yeah but the end of the video it says he wants local officials to hire him aka probably a higher paying but local job for the local government
No child should have to do this. Its heartbreaking
That kid is smart. Knowing that her parents are seeing her!
Yes
Yes, she sure is
🥺
Yeah but she doesn't understand when they have gone back to work and don't respond and still sits and talks as if they are there and ignoring her pleas for them.
Anyone saying they should spend more time with their kid they litteraly can’t without losing everything
@Priyojit chatterjee I did not know this, very interesting
@@rokmun680 Hukou literally means the "region of residence". Although not officially in the law, social resources is often allocated based on hukou. For example, Shanghai has the world's top hospitals, but only people with Shanghai hukou can be covered under more favorable Shanghai social medial insurance system. Other provinces' social insurance might not cover expense from Shanghai hospitals at all. Some Chinese immigrants in Canada and Australia told me that it is more difficult for them to immigrate to Shanghai than to Canada or Australia. It is very sad.
@@rokmun680 With that being said, hukou is not an evil measure to lock people in their region(what China Uncensored tries to make you believe). From the social perspective, hukou allows China to gradually increase social welfare according to the economical output of a region. However, in order to completely remove hukou, China must become a lot richer, GDP per capita must double from 10k USD/per person per year to 20k, which is probably why China and US fights. The world is a sad place.
@@johnanon372 Sad perhaps, but still here. Peace is the key to progress.
@@rokmun680 very true
This has to be excruciating for all the parents who are forced to make such choices. My heart goes out to them.
the choice is theirs,and a bad selfish one!
@@pernambuco-viagoogle9505 Sadly, not all parents in every country are allowed much of a choice in such matters. They both must work. Their work is far from home. Not all people are free to live or work wherever they wish. For some this is due to government edict. For others it may be a result of financial constraints. There may be a myriad of other contributing factors. It is clear from this story that, if these dear parents had their way, they would work near home and be there with their precious child every single day. Stories such as this one serve as a strong reminder to me to be grateful in all things.
@@pantaleimona
nah ahh! do not tell this to a person who brought up 5 ..including a granddaughter in a foreigner hostile country.today my granddaughter is 13.and for the many parts of my children young life.i "sacrificed" to stay home for 2 reasons

2- lack of much opportunity!
but i put up with their fathers abuses and all to protect my kids
so do not tell this to a ..matured" " wise person who being there done that

nothing..CHICKEN FEED FOR ME!
IT is not how much you have.but how greed and selfish you are!
@@pernambuco-viagoogle9505 It is wonderful that your little ones have you.
I'm so glad I never considered having children before I got my career going first. . . .then when I was not able to find a suitable husband to have kids with. . .I am childless to this day and do not regret the choice I made to be single and childless if I was unable to make the best environment in order to have them and raise them with love and attention all children require to grow up healthy and happy. I would consider adopting or being a foster mom but right now I do not have the optimum home environment for that purpose and besides, you have to be married in order to be a foster parent.
When I was a toddler, my parents used to live in a different city due to work. I used to stay with my grandparents. My mom used to come once a week or sometimes once in a month because the distance between two cities was huge. My grandmother used to distract me by taking to pluck flowers so that I won't cry when my mother or father where leaving. Although I don't remember much, but my parents still remember the pain of separation. It is still visible in their eyes 🥺 I love my parents and my grandparents so much ❤️
The child may forget all this one day. But the pain the parents will carry not having time to watch their own babies grow is worst than any punishment.
No she won't.

To many 1st world viewers this might be heartbreaking but I grew up in a small Chinese city and this is actually heart warming. Not 10 years ago, parents who ventures into big cities can only speak to their left-behind kids in actual phone call, no video or 24h surveillance at all. China is "rich" overall but don't forget its population is more than EU, US, UK, AUS, and Japan combined. Still many many small cities and villages need to be developed so those parents can earn a decent salary locally.

This reminds me when my mom use to go to work in another city and she had to leave me with grandma and I would only see her once a week. I’m pretty sure it was hard for her to leave me but she did the best thing she could to give me everything. She’s my hero.
give her a hug, brother. as soon as you can.
You're lucky you see her once a week. These children can only see their parents once a year during Chinese New Year for around two weeks per year.
and you re still living in her basement shame on you
My mom did the same, I lived w/cousins of hers, during the week.
Untill I was old enough to become a latchkey kid.
No dad?
This is actually very common for those kids living in the rural areas in China. Their environment makes them growing up so independent coz they learn cooking, farming and raising their lil siblings and taking care of their grandparents to survive since they're so young. They can only meet their parents once a year. Be grateful when you have parents by your side coz it's a luxury for them.
My mom's friend made the choice to bring her son along into the city instead of leaving him behind. It's an expensive decision that most can't afford.
But it just goes to show that living in an English speaking country is the greatest privilege

the kids can grow up with empathy without having being taught it by their parents
Wow, that made me tear up a bit. 😥
Bless them... May they discover a better living situation.
I wanna cry. Actually it's the grandparents who would take care of the baby in China
It said the little girl is with the GM.
It's the sad truth that Westerns do not know how many Chinese people endure hardships to make affordable products for the World.
They worked too ,🤦 china
@@rambadur5226 just because their lifestyle is different doesn't mean they're inferior. If you compare them to Americans, an average American is poorer because after you graduate you're already covered six feet down with student debt and many things that follows.
Aww... childhood never comes back and the child needs her parents warmth hope they would be able to spend time with her.
It’s very difficult! My father had to work 2 jobs as me and my siblings grew up, as we weren’t very well off. Luckily we did have time with him, but I know that he missed out on some things he wishes he didn’t but he had to work to keep us afloat. I’m so thankful and owe my parents everything. I can tell this man loves his daughter and works hard for her, even though he wishes he could be with her more. It’s a sad cycle.
Their other options are for all of them to die of hunger, be homeless for not paying rent and not able to send their kids to school.
I really thought she was left behind

From the title I thought it was a little girl left on purpose
yee right a little clickbaity title..
i thought the parents died or abandoned her but i think its still on purpose for the money to support the family. im glad they were able to have a few days off tho
That’s why there were quotations
But they ARE called "left-behind children", they are all over China
This is sooo soo sad. Please update us and let us know if he is given a job in his own community. Heart breaking.
It is not possible. This is life in China. The only valuable and properly paid jobs are in the cities. The rent there is too expensive. So people travel for hours and days to work, some stay M to F and only go back during weekends. I have seen videos of people only coming back home during the holidays to visit their children. Most of the children in China are raised by their grandparents in villages around the main cities.
@@MarinaArtDesign They are forced to see their kids for 2-3 days per year IIRC. That is sickening. Those children have development issues as well.
@@DarxKies Yes, but it is not only China. They have it worst maybe, but I live in a "developed country" and still, I have to work 12-16 hours a day if I want to buy a home. I have been working like this for 14 years and my health is destroyed, and I only managed to save half the money necessary to buy a house due to the government increasing prices 3 times. By the time I collect the money my daughter will leave for college. And now after covid and I lost day job I am practically doing anything, even this YT channel is a desperate attempt to make money. I am inventing wheels here. But I guess that is the story of most people now.
@@MarinaArtDesign i subscribe to your channel. Please take care of your health.
@@simplythei1068 Thank you so much. I know it is crazy to think YT will give me any income, but I work as a freelancer online now and I make overlays and artwork, editing videos for others, and I love Korean variety shows (they help me out of my depression) so I thought why not record my process of work and publish it, maybe someone will be interested. I know it is crazy, but I am going to try everything to give my family a better life. Thank you so much and I wish you all the best in this and all the years!
The joys of playing and hugging the child are being sacrificed for betterment of their lives. Poor thing.!
The cute part is that she still loves them both so much.
A lot of kids would become more attached to the people that are with them more often.
But this just shows that they are great parents and that girl will always love them.
In America there have been many a child bounced around to various family members.....war time, death of parents, abandonment by bread winner. Not all Americans have it easy. In fact most don't.
My heart aches watching the child's longing for her parents.
It’s terribly sad to say this, but at least they can still travel back to see their kids. Even if it’s infrequent. In so many countries, including China, some parents have to leave the country to find work. Doubt those parents can afford plane fare home on a regular basis. My own parents considered sending me back to China to be raised by my grandparents. Glad they managed to keep me with them.
Grandparents wouldn't be 100% bad; you can learn a lot about the past from old people.
Too many kids today don't learn from the past, they're doomed to repeat past's mistakes in the future.
Why not bring her along to where you live and work. Place her in the nursery at your work place, [there should have one, like we have here in USA].
@@mrsalwaysright6478 I agree, live together. When you go to work, place her in the nursery at the work place; problem solved.

@@mrsalwaysright6478 nurseries at work isn't a global thing which is a pity. We certainly don't have any in the companies in my country
This is heartbreaking, I pray this family's struggle encourages serious changes for the employee's and their families.
Its a sad state of affairs when society pushes parents to extremes and yet equivocate family values as a moral choice.
Better this than many homeless living in cars, boxes..etc in some big countries. As for choice, many parents in poorer area would pick to go work far away from home for better money in mainland China. Not as there are any well paid jobs for them near home.

@Bruno-Oyaji much less
I hope that the local officials have a heart and give the man a job near his home. 🌼🌺
The man said he can get a job near home, but the pay is too low for raising his family, that's why he reluctantly chose to work nine hours away from home.
@आदि राजपूत It is not as easy as some of you think. Yes, the pay is higher in bigger cities, yet the living expenses are higher too (especially the housing). Chinese factories/companies usually provide accommodation to their workers, but something like a bed only (i.e., few workers sharing one room, each has their own bed with shared bathroom). As a result, it is impossible for these workers to bring along their families and shift to the place where they're working. They cannot afford the housing & living expenses there.
In other words, they have to earn higher pay in bigger cities and raise their families with their wages in smaller cities that have lower housing & living expenses.
"there are hundreds of thousands" of families in the same position ....
I feel like sometimes we really do take what we have for granted. How lucky to those of us who are able to work near our family when there are many that are not able to do so.
@आदि राजपूत I'm starting to believe that child care should be free everywhere in the world.
She's so cute 🥺 and lonely. The way she's calling her parents is really heartbreaking 💔 😢

you dont have to have kids to feel bad for them, this is relatable in many ways, but it's nice to have the security, to be close to your kid and feel grateful that you're not in THAT part of the world. even single people can relate cause at some point, we were left alone and we knew what it's like to be lonley.
It so sad to see a little girl not able to see her parents.
Girl has loads of courage
Aww. Its so sad they said " sometime we have to go back to work and she still speaks to the camera as tho their still there"
This made me cry. ! My little one goes to daycare as I have to work full time 9 -6. For the 9 hours a day putting him in a daycare , I always carry that guilt and burden on my heart for not being able to spend time with him. When I see him on camera in school, eating by himself, sleeping by himself, my heart just breaks. So now a days I don't try to see him on camera. One day when my manager complained about working from home due to covid and trying to suggest that having child at home may be interrupting, I told him that myt son goes in a daycare fulltime and guess what he said, I don't know. I am not there to check. That day I decided to not spend a single more minute at work. just do what they pay you for. they are not worth it. your kids deserve your time.

I'm glad I watched this to find out she's just bored and not stranded.
She's not bored... She misses her parents dearly, I would say to the point of hurting. I have an almost 3-year-old and a 15-month-old toddler and they're both very attached to both me and their dad. It's an emotional need rather than "she's just bored".
She's not bord dude. She's hurt. I wish that you would understand
This just made me think of my dad and his siblings and my grandfather. He immigrated from Mexico and had to leave his kids with my grandmother and would come back every year or so. They were from a very rural area of Mexico. Eventually he brought his whole family with him to the US, but I can’t imagine not seeing my dad for over a year!? And back then their were no phones, cell phones, email, nothing. They barely had electricity.

i dont even have kids and it makes me cry to see babies not being able to spend time with their parents, for at least 5 or 6 years, it would be amazing to have that time to be with the kids. Honestly, that's the bonding time you need to make sure they grow up right.

"A son is a son till he gets a wife,but your daughter is a daughter all of her life "❤️
The reason why daughters love their dad the most is that there is atleast one man in the world who Will never hurt her

@ALBERT WIILIAM SATYA BHAKTI shut up
some dads do hurt their daughters, and sometimes it can be the worst, most traumatic experience for the daughter. lots of daughters develop different issues because of their dads like trust, abandonment, etc
So cute and heartbreaking at the same time. My wife and i had to quarantine away from our kids for 10 days when we got Covid. When we came back my 3 yo daughter saw me and first she flash a smile that suddenly turn into a confused look and then it look like she was gonna cry. I think she instantly realize how much she missed us! I picked her up quickly and she sobbed for a while. Kids are very precious.
If my 2 year old cry for me like that, man I would just struggle. Praying that somehow it works out and the kid can be with her parents.

Imagine having no choice but to watch your kid grow up through a security camera. Trust me, they will be working overtime her whole childhood.
This is heartbreaking. All over the world, families are suffering because of our absurd economic system. Seeing this video made me cry tears remembering how I dreaded a certain daycare center as a small child. My loving, respectful and patient parents would unwittingly hand me to these "caretakers" who hit and humiliated us children. I didn't realize I had a right to complain. I knew my parents just had to work. It wasn't just that I hated that daycare center, but also just that I longed to be with my parents. The memories are flooding back to me and I can't stop crying.
This is like a Ghibli movie, so cute and sad at the same time💖🙏🏻
I somehow both laughed and teared up a bit at 1:26
I love your reactions 😄
Hello
That was cute awww
oML hI
I can feel that pain, when my husband was living abroad, my children were 2 and 3 years old. Whenever they see a plane, they call their dad and think he is inside and keep calling him 😥
This video made me cry. I can’t imagine going away to work so far away and leaving my son behind. I feel so sad for all the the left-behind children and their parents. I send them my love and best wishes.
It broke my heart.... That she's talking to the camera. At least she understands that they can see her.
I was a latch key kid in the 70s and 80s with a single parent mom who worked swing shift. That meant she was in bed when I got up and got ready for school, and she didn't return until long after I had gone to bed. Back then, neighbors watched to make sure nothing strange happened. I can relate. We didn't have cameras. My mom called every night at 9 PM during her break.
Can't watch more😭😭
Seeing that cute girl saying "PAPA" that srsly touched my heart ❤️❤️
This made me literally cry .... every child should live happily 😭
This is so emotional I almost starts crying ❤️
I’m so lucky to be a stay at home mom , I love my kids I can’t imagine not being with them
0:23 Okay but her dancing is adorable
🙏🙏🙏 that all children left behind will reunite with parents in cities where they work for a living and lived happily ever after.
Some people like: "Just work from home, duh."
Bro if only it were that simple.
Others be like: Don't have kids, duh.
It's sad they think like that...
let them have cake
Same people be like: if youre homeless just buy a house duhh
That age is the absolute cutest age. You are so blessed to have such a ball of pure light, a burning flame of a soul in this insane gift of life. Get free and be with your children. Time goes so fast when you are not paying attention. Slow down and be there❤️
What we have to go through to live in this century! As a dad myself, my heart hurts seeing this! I wish them and everyone to be able to stay closer to our love ones.
It's the hardest thing to be away from the ones you love. I wish the family all the best.
Poor little girl, but her parents need to work... 😔
It's been more than 1 year now
I hope he got what he wanted
I thought the girl had an imaginary parent lol

@Legion dude ikr- we got fooled
Help my eyes are sweating from cuteness 😭
The manager is so kind, he let him get a few days off.
I’m almost crying. She deserves so much love. Aw dear baby!
Awww poor baby! It's heartbreak to see, but they've no choice. Imagine being in that position💔 but you can tell they love her very much. There's lots of children in China who don't have a family at all, so they are lucky to have each other, even if it's in this hard situation.
