Child sets incredible example caring for mother

A 10-year-old girl from Sichuan province, who has been her mother's sole carer for the past four years, has been hailed as a model of filial piety. Cai Chengcheng was only 6 years old when her mother, Chen Li, suffered a brain hemorrhage which left her with severe memory loss. Teaching her mother how to read, write and speak again became part of the young girl's daily routine. "Before, mama taught me how to read now it is my turn to teach her how to read," Cai told the Chengdu Business Daily last week. "I paired the words I wanted to teach mama with animals and food I liked, to make it more interesting for her."
