    Quoting Andy, I strongly disagree with whatever he said. China is not a disgrace in SO many ways. China has a lot of advantages and disadvantages of its place. Just because one case as such happened, you don't have to generalise everything. I think it happens at many other countries too.

    There are a lot of countries who prefer sons than girls. So, it's not just China alone. What about other countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, Iran and etc. Like I said, it happens all the time at other places too. The difference is whether you know it or not. They are affected by their culture.

    And tbh, I don't find this shocking. There are more cases worse than this, I believe. What about genital mutilation that still happens even though it's already 2011? When you come to think about it, it all makes sense. That's why they say this world is cruel and wild.

    However, it's sad to see a child suffer from such thing.

    I'm not going to watch the video, I hate stuff like this.

    Can't believe people would not stop to help, truly disgusting.

    I find it funny how you're allowed to post a video of a little girl getting run over but not of a music video with multiple swearing in it...

    Strange this, I saw that the completely same thing happened in Russia to a two year old girl aswell, but she got run over twice and then a lorry drove over her legs. Poor girl is in a coma, but people did drag her off the road. Makes me think to think that people would just walk/drive past and not do anything, absolutely disgusting.

    Omg..that made me feel sick ;S I couldn't watch the whole thing.

    What kind of messed up people leave a child on the side of a road to die? I don't care if it's a 1-child policy in China and if boys are favoured over girls, doesn't mean you should let a 2 year old die..

    I praise that woman who actually tried to help the child in the end ... not just drag it to the side of a road :/

    @Misawa and whoever else said she's dead, source?

    She's brain dead, not dead

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...LpxL_blog.html

    Chinese toddler who was ignored by 18 passersby and left in the street after she was run over twice is now brain dead, doctors said Wednesday.


    Two-year-old Yue Yue in intensive care. (Image via Weibo.) The state-run paper China Daily, however, is still confidently reporting that Yue Yue is fine. Her “blood pressure and heart beat shows signs of stability,” their most recent story reads.

    Is it possible that China’s censors are already at work? Yue Yue’s story certainly does not look good for the government.

    Instead, the seven excruciatingly long minutes in which 18 people decide not to help a bleeding two-year-old girl lying in the road make China look like anything but the “harmonious society” President Hu Jintao has envisioned.
    Instead, Yue Yue is now “in a deep coma and clinically brain dead,” according to doctors quoted by the news agency Xinhua. Yue Yue’s parents are facing the decision about whether to turn off the life support machine that is keeping her alive
    A prevalent fear in the country is that those who help the injured will be blamed for the injuries. Much of this has to do with a 2006 case in which a man who helped an elderly woman to the hospital was dragged to court by her family and made to pay a large share of her medical bills.

    The thing is, whilst it's sick to everyone within this side of the world is in floods of tears, it's not seen as "shocking news" in China. Sorry to say but yeah they do favourite the male gender over females, this isn't me talking f y i just because I'm asian never even beeeen to China.
    Always have courage and be kind

    I think it's a bit unfair to entirely blame it on the mother...

    Ugh sickening. I really cant comprehend something like this.

    The sad thing is we are all born blank canvases, someone/something makes these people think this is acceptable

    I hope that if the girl did die, that she is in a much better place.

    If only we could rid the world of rubbish and start a fresh, imagine a world full of people like this
