Chinese parents paying ₹1.5 lakh for 'hardship camps' to toughen up kids who have 'gone soft'

Chinese parents have been paying up to ₹1.5 lakh to send their city-raised children to countryside camps where they can experience manual farm labour. Advertised for children aged six to 16, these 'hardship summer camps' promise to toughen up kids that parents fear have "gone soft". Campers spend over a month feeding pigs, gathering firewood, cleaning dung, and even cooking.
