The Reason Bao Bao Doesn't Want to go to School (Clearwisdom.net) I asked my neighbor's 4-year-old son, Bao Bao, "Do you want
to go to school when you are older?" Bao Bao said, "I don't want to go; school
is terrible." I asked, "How do you know it's terrible?" Bao Bao said, "Granny
went to school, and she can't come home. Mom took me to school to see her. The
school had locked granny in a room. There are steel rods and a lock on the door.
Granny can't come out. She even has to urinate in there. There is no bed, so she
has to sleep on the floor. The school tries to make granny curse at people, and
she can't come home unless she complies. School is no good, it's a terrible
place." Everyone knows that Bao Bao's granny is a kind person. Because she practices
Falun Gong and believes in "Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance," the police
took her away. They locked her in a place they officially call the
"law-regulated school," but in reality it is a forced brainwashing center.
There, they used all means to force her to give up her belief in Falun Gong. She
was subjected to the worst mental torture. On the outside it's called a
"school," but in reality it's a jail. In China, the persecution of Falun Gong has imprinted an indelible image on
Bao Bao's innocent mind. The first school that Bao Bao has experienced is a jail
which is a place where bad things are perpetrated on good people. What he
doesn't know is that his family, in order to rescue his granny, went to many
places asking for help, and begging for money. When his granny does get
released, his family will be in debt and still have to pay a few thousand more
yuan [an average urban worker's month salary in China is 500 yuan] in
illegal fines and fees. Posting date: 2/12/2004
