The boy who pooped on a crowded Guangzhou subway last week -- rather unceremoniously nicknamed the "Little Shit Brother" (in this video, it's rendered as "pooping emperor," as brother and emperor are pronounced the same) -- is still fresh on people's minds. We know this because that boy might have directly caused a fight to break out in a Shenzhen hospital on Saturday. The scene: a sick boy, just one and a ...

Posted Friday, this video starring toddler Romeo Elvis Bulte Boivin has already racked up 8 million views, and understandably so. Directed by French Canadian comic book creator Patrick Boivin -- who made Iron Baby two years ago starring his daughter, Marguerite Bulte Boivin -- Dragon Baby features a baby and kung fu, and if there was a set of magic formulas for a video going viral, I'm pretty sure baby+kung ...

When it rains, it pours. Following revelations of child abuse by this terrible kindergarten teacher, who took hundreds of pictures of herself tormenting her students, and this kindergarten teacher, who was caught on tape slapping kids, and this kindergarten teacher, who nearly killed a child by flinging her to the ground, we have two more cases of abuse to report. First, the slightly less shocking of the tw ...

Who doesn't love a good photo-bombing baby, right? Or for that matter, just a photo of a baby -- totally awesome, yeah? And while we're at it, who doesn't also love a picture of a baby's penis, amirite? Guys, you with me? I'm not sure what the journalistic policy is on posting pictures of nude toddlers... at what age is it child porn? Serious question. I mean, it's obviously fine if it's a baby, but what if ...

You've seen this already, I'm sure. It's on CRI and China.org, both citing Xinhua, and People's Daily via Global Times, citing China Foto Press, via Sina Weibo (reposted and forwarded so many times that watermarks stack upon watermarks). It's all over Western press too, including Daily Mail, BBC, Radio New Zealand, ABC... how? Why? What makes this viral material over, say, the last incident involving kinder ...

The sickening footage of child abuse in a Guangzhou kindergarten earlier this month has itself a sequel. On October 15, a teacher at Blue Sky Mentesuoli Kindergarten, an unlicensed school in Taiyuan, Shanxi province, lost her temper and struck three children, as caught on tape (above, and after the jump on 56.com for those in China). One five-year-old girl was reportedly slapped 70 times. After parents lodg ...

Found on Liveleak last night, this disturbing scene from a kindergarten in Guangzhou shows a 20-something female teacher lifting a four-year-old and throwing her onto the ground because she wouldn't do her exercises. The child, Yao Yao, suffered a "major" head injury, according to the newscast. The teacher, apparently unaware that young children shouldn't be tossed around like laundry, grabs Yao Yao's legs ...

Please help us caption this image, screen-grabbed from BJC contributor Jim Fields's latest video project, who notes: "One-third of the world's smokers are Chinese men. The other two-third are Chinese babies." The first part is true. ...

Southern Metropolis Daily has the story of a baby found in the squat toilet of a Dongguan shoe factory yesterday (that hurt to write). The picture you see above comes from The Nanfang, which tells us: Police immediately began an investigation to locate the child’s mother. Officers from Liaobu Hengkeng Police Station searched the factory’s dormitories, asking whether any of the workers had been pregnant rece ...

In Taiyuan, Shanxi province on August 18, a 6-year-old boy called Wen Wen was playing in the parking lot outside his family’s fast-food restaurant when he was hit from behind by a minivan. But not hit, per se -- the van passed over him as he fell forward onto his knees and elbows and curled up into just the right size to avoid death. The vehicle continued to reverse, then briefly stopped. When the driver no ...

I'm not even going to try to explain this one. In Linyi, Shandong province, a kid was photographed crossing the road in a pair of bumper cars somehow (and for some reason) linked together. The kid straddles the connector in the middle and can accelerate, turn, and brake. It's all cute and funny until he gets run over by a car, amiright? Also: how in the world is a child driving through an urban area in a bu ...

A woman nearly lost her child in Jinhua, Zhejiang province recently when she recklessly drove her scooter carrying two young children between two cars at a stoplight. As she braked, the scooter lurched and a child fell out, and at the same time the car next to them pulled forward as the light had turned green. The young child's head bumped against the back wheel of the car. The above video gives you a frigh ...

Via Imgur, at the Bawangfen South bus stop near Dawanglu in Beijing. Atari, yo. That's the new old image of badass for the 2000s generation. What's that, that's not the Atari logo? Fuck it, I'm a pimp. Gonna go back to reading this now. (H/T Alicia) UPDATE: Picture by Natalie Litofsky! ...

UPDATE, 9/11, 12:14 pm: I've switched the embed to the original video; the pianist is Andy Lee from Hong Kong, and he's apparently five years old. The website Godvine got itself a viral video recently, called "4 Year Old Boy Plays Piano Better Than Any Master - Wow," but left no information about it. Can you blame anyone for being a bit a skeptical? But this looks real to our eyes. Maybe the boy is actually ...

We're not mean people who enjoy laughing at others' misfortune, but if your head gets stuck between railings -- concrete ones, requiring firefighters to be called in, with half a neighborhood watching -- you deserve to be clucked at. Sorry, kid. But you live and learn, and life gets better. Easier? Probably not. But better. Also, you now can empathize with Medieval thieves who were put in the stocks. So the ...

Hope you're enjoying your Saturday afternoon. If not, be inspired by these kids, found a few weeks ago in Sanlitun. Youku video for those in China after the jump. ...

You've probably seen kids peeing and pooping in the streets of China -- and you would turn a blind eye to it, I'm sure -- but have you ever seen a boy peeing into a paper cup, held by his father, at a hotpot restaurant, over food, in front of all the other diners? At the risk of implicating myself in a future child porn sting, I will mention his shirt is lifted and trousers dropped to just above the knees. ...

A bona fide work of art, this. Found by Alicia in Xinhua’s "Funny moments of those eccentric kids," attributed to nen.com.cn. ...

A few days ago at a shopping mall in Zunhua, Tangshan, Hebei province, security cameras caught a small dog being a small dog, by which I mean terrorizing a small child. The boy's grandmother tried to shoo the dog away (we don't know if she struck it, because that part is off-camera). This act infuriated the dog's owner, a young girl who began attacking the woman, who was in her 60s. Store attendants momenta ...
