Parents shocked by racy teen magazines

Handsome boys and pretty girls regularly fall in love, hang out at bars and clubs and swindle money from their families. Some even get married once they hit the age of 18.

Such are the adventures of the young people who populate the stories of many magazines popular with middle school students in Beijing. And some parents are not happy about it.

The Beijing Morning Post recently printed a story about an anxious mother who had called up the newspaper to complain about how popular love story magazines had become among students.
