Grandmother 'cuts off' her eight-month-old baby granddaughter's hands

Grandmother cuts off her eight-month-old baby granddaughter's hands | Mail Online

An eight-month-old baby is recovering in hospital after having both her hands chopped off by her grandmother. The incident took place when the grandmother was caring for the little girl while her parents were at work in the Shandong Province of China.
The grandmother's motives are not yet known as she remains in a coma since the incident, after she attempted to kill herself. A neighbour, who saw the aftermath of the incident and accompanied the mother and child to hospital, said: 'I saw the woman came back home after work in the early afternoon but only 10 minutes later she dashed down holding her baby, who was covered with blood.

What exactly did the infant do to warrant her arms getting cut off?

"Sense... this picture makes none." -- At least no logical sense.

When I read the title, straight away I thought "chinese woman".

It's a thing. Chinese women seem sweet and accommodating and nice, but they are every bit as nuts as other woman. The difference is they bottle it up. When they lose it, they go absolutely apeshit - burning down houses, murdering their spouses and kids, and of course this kind of thing.

However, that statement sounds a bit racist...

There's no logic or gender which adds to a wider argument.

Today, hundreds of millions of grandmothers and fathers worldwide will resist the compulsion to chop off bits of their granddaughters and grandsons. Aside from the sarcasm, the news media likes to inculcate an unreasonable fear to sell newspapers.

Haha, if you wanna be technical you can say sexist but is it true?

The thing is that there could never BE a reason for this type of thing to happen. Sometimes, it seems people just...go insane.

Some insane people wouldn't even do this.

It's about the culture, not about the race.

The statement could have been read as though you were speaking of all Chinese women, not just those who are also part of the Chinese culture. I don't know about the Chinese culture, I just made a comment on the wording.

This old tune again. He's basically saying that Chinese women aren't any better than other women but they pretend to be what men want long enough to keep the veil over men's eyes.

I find pathetic and laughable that all of the Asian fanboys have no idea what Chinese women are.
