<\/p>\nA student who is addicted to live-streaming pay for view shows spent over 1.58 million RMB yuan, the equivalent to 173,929.56 GBP, in just seventy days.<\/p>\n
The 8th grade pupil who left school to help his parents sell vegetables had been at home to support his parents in the family business.<\/p>\n
His horrified mum and dad contacted the streaming sites, in a bid to recoup their money, but only received a refund after the courts intervened.<\/p>\n
Judge of Municipal Intermediate People’s Court in Tianjin, Lei Tian, said: \u201cThis case shows us the features of juveniles giving online rewards. They have no concept of money, they just do it for fun.<\/p>\n
“They do it on a regular and intensive basis without knowing what kind of behaviour they are conducting.”<\/p>\n

After intervention by a court, the 1.58 million yuan was refunded to Liu’s parents as live-streaming from such accounts is banned for juveniles.<\/p>\n
Liu Wang Mum, Yan, said: \u201cWe were busy with our businesses day and night, and didn\u2019t have much time for our son. I am sorry for ignoring him for such a long time. We have contacted a secondary school and will send him back.”<\/p>\n
The Supreme Court of People stated any juvenile taking part in online paid games or live-streaming rewards without the approval of their guardians, their request of claiming the money back should be granted.<\/p>\n
Judge Tian said: \u201cThe supervision should be carried out before, during and after the period of when a reward is made.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is attainable as the backstage data shows the amount of each reward and the time it was made.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Cyberspace Administration of China and another seven administrative departments have reached an agreement and released new guidelines around enhancing network control for people under the age of 16.<\/p>\n
