People are divided over whether there should be a separate compartment for children on trains

According to the Chinese newspaper People 's Daily, separate compartments for children has attracted.

More Than 2,000 Weibo users have been discussing whether it would be a solution to "noisy…bear children" on The Journey .

'Bear children'

Some support the idea, saying "what Most People are afraid of on a train is noisy bear children".

A "bear child" is a common Chinese slang phrase meaning a child who is spoilt.

The use of the word "bear" in this instance suggests some People in China think some children on trains can act in a feral Way .

The Comment "a carriage full of 'bear children', I can't even imagine" gained More Than 4,000 likes on Weibo.

One Weibo user says: "Imagine them crying, One after another…"

Another says that maybe there wouldn't be a problem with excessive noise, if a child had People to play with.

One says that there's room to discuss partitioning trains for family areas, adult-only areas, and private mother and baby areas.

Perhaps bizarrely, there have been a lot of stories in China's media in recent months, stressing that there's a demand for better controls on Chinese trains.

This started with a spate of incidents involving "seat robbers" going viral. Travellers began flagging up belonging to other People , and Social Media users jumped on the bandwagon sharing videos that they had seen of Bad Behaviour leading to nationwide shaming.

At the same time, there has been a lot of dialogue in recent years about an emerging generation of "bear children" - children who are raised with no discipline, and misbehave at will. The One -child policy has been partly to blame for parents spoiling their only children and leading them To Believe they can get whatever they want.

Newspapers recognise that it is a modern phenomenon, and similarly, videos have circulated online shaming the parents of "bear children", and commentaries often appear debating how such children can be properly dealt with.

China Railway Corporation's Huang Xin , said she always welcomed.

"(Translated from Mandarin) Whether or not it's necessary to concentrate noisy children in One compartment, all Public Transport faces a similar situation.

"There are People suggesting that those who like to watch films or listen to music should be concentrated in One department. These suggestions provide inspiration for the improvement of the Public Transport sector, but also bring new challenges about how we can further improve and refine the services of public transportation.
