A young mother in China is selling her breast milk on the street to raise money for her sick daughter’s medical bills.
In the video, the mother and her husband explain they need to raise at least 100,000 yuan for one of their children, who is seriously ill. Her husband explains that the couple owe the hospital “hundreds of thousands of yuan” and “the doctor said that once she’s cured, we should prepare to pay at least 100,000 yuan”. It has been viewed more than 2.4 million times and has had more than 5,000 comments since it was shared on China’s social media platform Sina Weibo.
The reaction online has been mostly sympathetic, with people sharing the phrase “sell milk, save girl”. Users asked passers-by to “give money to them”, with some saying they would donate to help the couple if they saw the parents on the street. And one comment with more than 3,000 likes reads, “Once people in the lowest level of society become seriously ill, they don’t even have basic rights.”
But some users were less sympathetic, with one person criticized the decision to sell breast milk as “a rude way of asking for help”. Another added, “Everybody can understand that you are helpless and hoping to receive aid, but how can you keep your dignity if you have to sell milk?” But one person criticized the negative comments, saying, “This is the love of the most helpless parents. Those who are saying dirty things online should think that if this was your child, would you care about maintaining face or your child’s life?”
