Forced to eat own vomit: Chinese boy, 6, fed sick by teacher for throwing up in class after eating too much causes uproar on social media
- Parents complain to school but denied access to surveillance footage
- In another 2017 case, preschool teacher used needles to discipline children
A mainland nursery teacher who forced a pupil to eat his own vomit on his sixth birthday has horrified online observers.
Surveillance video footage posted on social media showed her stuffing mushed-up food into his mouth after he had already finished his lunch. The boy had earlier thrown up chunks of pumpkin after having too much to eat.
His parents complained about the teacher, calling her actions child abuse. They said their child was sick because he was forced to eat the pumpkin on a full stomach.
The shocking incident happened on September 15, the boy’s birthday, at the Maluwan Kindergarten in northeastern China’s Liaoning province, his father, surnamed Zhang said.
Zhang said they dressed the boy in new clothes for his birthday, but when he came home his clothes were filthy.
They thought no more about it until the youngster revealed to his grandmother that the teacher had forced him to eat more food after lunch.
