“The night before the first day of kindergarten started, I reminded him to make sure his sister went down for a nap after her lunch,” the boy’s mother said, but added she had not told him to help her with lunch and was surprised.

She said that it was not the first time the boy had looked out for his sister, and said in the past he had changed his sister’s diapers and dressed her after afternoon naps.

The video of the caring brother touched many online users in mainland China.

One said: “Oh, what a lovely boy! The family has a great parenting style.”

Girl shouts about homework overload with megaphone

A video of a girl in China shouting about her homework into a megaphone at home has become a source of amusement for many on mainland social media.

The girl, from Guangdong in southern China, was doing her homework in her bedroom last week when she suddenly decided she’d had enough of the pressure and decided to shout her feelings into a megaphone.

Many who watched the video were amused by the girl’s way of expressing herself. One person joked: ‘Why did her dad interrupt her? I want her to continue’. Photo: Baidu

Her father was on hand to film the moment and stood at the entrance of the girl’s bedroom as she stretched one leg onto her desk while holding a megaphone before shouting into it.

“There is too much homework today, hahaha. This insecticide is best to kill cockroaches and ants. Please hurry to purchase,” the girl said.

The homework had nothing to do with insects, she was only pretending to be a street salesperson selling insecticides because these people often have a megaphone in hand to announce a promotional sale.

“Give me one bag of insecticide for ants please,” her dad jokingly replied.

The girl, unaware her father was listening, was visibly shocked as she gave her father an astonished look.

Many who saw the video online were amused by the girl’s way of expressing herself.

One said: “Why did her dad interrupt her? I want her to continue.”

Another said: “Haha, she is doing a good advertisement.”

“So what? She doesn’t intend to beat you. If you don’t apologise to her, I will call the police.” the boy continued.

The boy also warned his father he would expose his “bad behaviour” to the public by posting an “incriminating” photo on his father’s WeChat account.

“The boy is so adorable,” one Weibo user wrote.

Another commented: “The boy is so smart, and he has a coherent plan for protecting his mum.”
