Li, deliberately whipped her 9-year-old adopted son for not finishing his homework. The beating might have gone unnoticed but for the teachers who took photos of the the boy’s scars all over his body and posted it online.
The incident caused outrage in China and the woman was reported to police. In court Ms Li confessed to repeatedly beating the child with a skipping rope and back scratcher because he “didn’t finish his homework and told lies.” I’m not a bad mother. I just don’t want him to lie
She said: “I’m not a bad mother. I just don’t want him to lie and he doesn’t feel safe when we’re apart from each other.” The boy is believed to be Li’s nephew, whom she adopted several years ago from his parents in rurral area to give the boy better education.
