About This Novel
Classrooms, stadiums, amusement parks... The ordinary study and life of their peers are the "right track" that they find difficult to enter; kitchens, hospitals, care centers... The incurable disabilities and diseases of their families are a heavy burden for them year after year. Young caregivers carry the burdens of adults on teenage shoulders. What is affected is not only their current studies and health, but also their future career paths and life choices. But why don't they seek help? Why can't schools and society see their pain? A reporter from the Daily News' special reporting department discovered and interviewed a teenage caregiver by chance. They realized that they could no longer let such children continue to be "transparent" and carry heavy burdens without being known. Therefore, they conducted interviews and reports to present the situation and voices of juvenile caregivers, and at the same time followed up on local self-government and national investigations into juvenile caregivers, and promoted the introduction of effective measures to find a way out and improve the situation of this group of silent and stoic children. After a long period of darkness, the young caregivers finally waited for the first ray of sunshine.
