Liaoning Evening News, February 24, 2009
The tabloid headlines on the front page of today’s Liaoning Evening News include:
- Taking grandma to university
- Daughter doesn’t change lock when she lost her keys, father killed by thief who entered the door
- A taxi driver eager to drive her to a bridge where she wanted to commit suicide
The report about taking grandma to university tells the story of Guan Wandong (管万东) who studies at Liaoning Normal University. With one parent dead and another who is ill, his sick grandma doesn’t have enough money to cure her different illnesses, including a slightly deformed leg. Guan wants to rectify this by doing part-time work whilst at university. However, she’s not so happy about his decision to take her along, saying that she’d be a burden.
