Tianxing Cries on Children's Day

June 1st is Children's Day, a day when many little children go to parks with their parents or eat delicious food. However, 7-year-old Tianxing hasn't been able to see his mother in the past five years because she "left and went to a very far away place" on this special day in 2004. Tianxing misses her very much. Tianxing's father hasn't come to see him for a long time. Tianxing's maternal grandfather passed away not long after his daughter's death. In May this year, Tianxing's guardian, his aunt Feng Xiaomei, was sent to a forced labour camp. Tianxing, his maternal grandmother and his cousin have no source of income. Children's Day turns out to be a disaster day for little Tianxing who can only cry on this day.

Wang Tianxing was born on July 31st, 2002. Even before he was born, he had to wander around with his parents who chose to leave home to avoid further persecution. On June 1st, 2004, when he was only 22 months old, his mother died as a result of persecution. As he grew older and picked up more words he would say something like "Mummy is crying," "Mummy goes to the hospital" and "Daddy is at work." Sometimes when he woke up from sleep he cried for Mummy and Daddy. When he saw other kids call "mummy," he also called "mummy." If he fell down, he shouted "mummy." too. Occasionally he could recognize Mummy's clothes and then hold on tight to them, not letting go. Everyone who saw this couldn't help shed tears.

The wanton actions of police who broke into homes to arrest people had greatly harmed Tianxing and left a deep scar on his young mind. Even a knock on the door would startle him and make him cry. Tianxing is now in first grade and is envious of his classmates who have both parents. Every day when he sees his friends run to their mummies and daddies during after school pickup time, his tears stream down his face. He is supposed to have a happy family, yet the Chinese Communist Party shattered his carefree childhood.
