69-year-old Chinese father sues his three daughters for not visiting him enough

Yang Zhengyuan, a 69-year-old father of three from China's Sichuan province filed a lawsuit against his three daughters in March for not returning home to visit him 'frequently'. He claimed his daughters hadn't come home enough or given him enough financial support over the past ten years.

His daughters Yang Liu, Yang Qing and Yang Lan however hit back with a counterclaim accusing him of favoring boys over girls.

Yang Liu claims that her father beat her in her own office after she failed to give him the money he was demanding from her. 

While Yang Qing said she was beaten by her father when she was pregnant: 'When I was a few months pregnant, he pulled my hair and beat me.' 

They have provided copies of balance transfers sent to their father.

The family has been able to work out an agreement under which they will visit him twice a year and call once every month.

The mother of the girls, Xiao Liu confirmed the girls' allegations saying her husband favored boys over girls and used to beat her.

The daughters also argue that their father has shown a lack of interest in their personal affairs such as education, marriages and careers. 

He admitted that he could have contributed more to his family but denies claims that he 'abandoned' his daughters. 

Yang Qing told reporters: 'Even if he wins the case, we would lose our affection.' 

Earlier this year China introduced a new rule that allows parents to sue their children for not seeing them enough.  

Children who still refuse to visit their parents will be given a bad credit which may make it difficult for them to open bank accounts, take out loans and even have a library card.

The new law has an emphasis on 'coming home' rules.

During visits to their parents, the children have to provide financial and spiritual support to them.

Marie Performing Arts Academy - the future of Nigeria's Performing Arts Industry

Marie Performing Arts Academy has invites all children and teens to its 2016 summer Performing Arts Camp taking place in Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria from the 24th of July, to 8th of August, 2016. It will be two great weeks of intriguing arts display, arts uncovering, acquisitioning and talent development lead by the prolific and renowned performing arts genius, Marie Idara Bassey. 

Marie Performing Arts Academy has great history in nurturing and providing talents that have emerged atop of major performing arts competitions in Nigeria and beyond.

The successes of this academy are too many too mention. But this had not always been the case. MarieBassey had humble beginnings and like every little girl, she dreamed of becoming a princess wearing a tiara and dancing ballet. But in true Nigerian fashion, these were dismissed as ‘just dreams’ by her friends and some of her family. Her loving mother, however, saw possibilities of these dreams. When Marie was 9 years old, her mother entrusted her training to Miss Vanessia Thompson (A dance instructor from Jamaica) and after years of enjoyable, rigorous and mind boggling training sessions, Marie graduated to becoming a dancer, choreographer and a trainer.

All this rehearsal and training didn’t deter Marie from going to school. In fact, she excelled in all things academic. 

For the records, Marie Performing Arts Academy produced the winner of CGMI’s got talent 10years old Joanna Mshelia in 2011 and In 2013 Marie produced seven finalists and the eventual winner (Amarachi Uyanne) of Airtel’s Nigeria’s got talent. She also produced the winner of the 2014 edition (Robots for Christ). She continued from there to motivating and training other young stars like Emmanuel Osahor at GCGT 2016 and the award winning duo, Jesse Umoh and Oghomwen Edosomwan.

However, just like Marie’s mother did back then, you too could take advantage of this summer Performing Arts Camp to help develop that extra ability, skill and passion in your children and teens and make the best outta their holiday for their immediate future.

The performance camp will hold in a suitable and secure environment and would provide the options of camping or attending from home for attendees. For nine hours daily in two weeks, participants will go through rigorous fun and learning activities, leadership and entrepreneurial education classes, arts and crafts alongside the main performing arts curriculum.
