Exactly, S'boy! China is no place for a western child to be raised ethically. Besides, should said child ever return to the west, he (or she) will have the stigma of having lived in the 'Wild East' to overcome in jobseeking situations back in his (or her) parents' homeland.
China's great for lazy oldtimers with some western funds behind them to support their daily living teaching or going through the motions of doing so. As usual, your posts are sensible. I hope the originsl poster heed your advice for her child's sake.
