Carers and nannies should be vetted by their companies
A VIDEO CLIP showing a woman beating a child a dozen times within a minute in an elevator after the doors closed has gone viral. The incident was confirmed to have happened in a residential community in Zhengzhou, Central China's Henan province, and the local police said they have detained the suspect, who was the child's nanny. Hebnews.cn comments:
What happened in Zhengzhou is just the latest in a recent series of incidents involving nannies.
One thing that has proved effective in developed countries is building an entrance threshold for the profession of home care helpers. In simple words, a "wall" must be built so that nannies and home care helpers with bad records will be kept outside, and the children and senior citizens who need care can stay safe inside.
