It is not China. It is select individuals and they can be found in any country.
These are selfish people with no morals.

Yes, You were getting at most of that. However I don't think it was especially indicative of China's society, I suspect that the gender of the child didn't matter much in this case.

I know that there are some cases of newborn baby girls being abandoned or worse by their parents in China, Asian cultures a lot of importance on having a son to carry on the family line and that is troublesome in a country that had (has?) a one child policy.

However that is not a common practise in China, most families don't do that because they are not inhuman. It's also not that they don't care if a girl lives or dies, it's just that they would prefer a son in their own family. So it doesn't explain why they left this girl alone in the road.

Something I found, which I feel make another point. Is the dog better than the people who ignored the other girl.

A dog pulls another dog that was hit on a motorway to safety.

Not surprised to see her die :(
But what an awful video and I can't believe so many passer by's just ignored her, let alone the two drivers who ran her over. :(

I saw this video on facebook yesterday, was thinking to post but was too heartbreaking. :(:(

human race is a disgrace when i see evil stuff like this

Re: Toddler run over and ignored by passers-by
 

The two van drivers have been arrested, and people are call for the death penalty, which China is very well know for giving.

Re: Toddler run over and ignored by passers-by
 

Well that's a positive that at least they will be held to account.

I too saw this before it was posted, I too considered posting but thought it was too graphic for a 'family forum'

Sad times. RIP.

I thought hard about it, and as it was freely available on the Sky news site, I decided to link to the story rather than the video link itself.
