Full time children

Full time children or full time daughter/son are an occupation in China where the child is paid by their parents to do house chores around the clock and be available to help them. The children are also paid as much as an average worker with a monthly salary of 4000-8000 Yuan or the equivalent of 500-1100 US dollars. The trend is organized through the internet.[1][2] The high unemployment rate and family dynamics are cited as reasons for the existence of this occupation.[3][4]
