China's hunt for medals and the price of childhood
Just saw a documentary film about the cruel "Chinese way" of training children. The Red Race. It was disgusting and makes one sad and angry. I think that China has a long way of civilisation-as-humanism ahead.

It’s clear what Chao Gan, director of The Red Race, want us to feel about China’s gymnastics training schools for children. The documentary is mostly a series of scenes in which adorable kids are brought to tears by screaming coaches who push them past their breaking points physically and emotionally.
