@@fergusfraser8641 do you know how common it is for men to force their wives to have s**? Birth control is unlikely to be free, maybe they thought if they had 2 children then the government will do something? What about the dad doing something? He’s supposed to have injured hands, but he’s playing on a phone. I’m sure she has some level of depression, until someone has felt real depression they can’t understand it. Maybe the husband is violent too? Very common in China where women don’t have as many rights to protect themselves

@@SuperLn1991 I was confused at first because the video doesn't specify the currency, but I'm pretty sure their rent is 4000 Hong Kong dollars, which would be around 500 USD. The price itself is not bad for a city as expensive as Hong Kong, but it's still an extremely cramped place for what would appear to be a family of four. Hopefully they'll be able to move out of that dump eventually. The little kids make this especially heartbreaking.

I think they need cupboards and better shelving. I am not an interior designer, but after watching that video, i feel like getting out my saw and start designing some custom shelving. Too bad their landlord didn't install any better space saving measures for them so that things can be stored away. The mother is a very nice person, I don't think she is depressed. I grew up poor, and I find parents tend to hoard more when you are poor, they don't want to throw anything out because everything has value or can be reused or recycled. My only concern for the mess is that it may attract cockroaches . I am of Chinese descent, and Chinese, in general, are not very neat and hygienic compared to the Japanese. Japanese people live in similar small quarters but they very neat and tidy because their culture appreciates hygiene and understand an uncluttered space equals to peaceful mind. Have you seen the toilets in China or even in North America...it's pretty gross. .it's a reflection of the culture. i don't think she sounds depressed. She just doesn't see any point in tidying up since she has no place to put things away. I don't think they even have a closet for their clothes. I do feel sorry for the family and it must be torture living there during the sweltering hot summers.

My brothers had it worst they grew up in Kowloon Walled City, they have literally saw a man chasing another with a butcher knife in broad daylight when they were coming home from primary school, these are usually triad groups (if you know the story of KWC you know how bad it was back then) I am very very lucky to have gotten out of my situation and now work in an office job and living in a private housing regardless my past background.

Apartments are not built for human beings. New property development estates are worst, you get a balcony, 1.2 meter kitchen, small shower and toilet, and a room area enough to place a small double bed - yet these properties offer a pool, and gym in the facility in the pretence it's bling. The greed of real estate investments is Hong Kong's FOREVER reality, from the time of the British rule till this very day, with the HK$ tied to the economic hitman currency US$ charging Hong Kong people to breath in the city. All real estate investment are hedge fund money laundering schemes. Hong Kong is in desperate need of reforms.

That ends up being psychologically worse for them than simply being cramped and in financial poverty. A good decluttering would do WONDERS for the stressfulness of the situation. They have clothes, food, utilities, education for the kids, and even a television. The financial strain and lack of space are bad, but I am sure the clutter makes it feel much worse, which then affects the children and their grades.

At the start of the video i wondered why she stayed in hk even though she's from the mainland. Turns out she married there. I hope their living conditions improve soon. If i were here i would take a big risk and move back to my hometown. (If she's from the countryside atleast) even if u dont have work i think you'll be able to survive by growing your own food just have to work hard physically plus there's plenty of living space for all. Just find your ancestral home or cut up bamboo trees and make a simple hut. I feel especially bad for the kids though. And when they hit puberty it will be so awkward for them if they still live like this.

4:50 There's no rule that says that just because you're poor, you must turn whatever little space you have into a garbage dump. My brother and I grew up with a single, immigrant mother who worked two jobs. All three of us slept in a tiny room in a boarding house. We had to share the kitchen and bathroom with other occupants. It was small but it was at least clean. That's because my mother didn't collect stuff. We couldn't afford it. What little we had, was put away or stacked neatly...to show we value those things. I hope that little girl and her brother escape their circumstance. They deserve better. But I'm sorry to say from the filthy conditions that their parents have other issues that can't be fixed by government programs...or a bigger apartment.

@@MadammaL2022 She did say they were just finished with lunch when the media crew came over. So stuff was all over the place. She also said, she's need to move things around to have space to cook. I'd think it also takes a lot of time to ask government for assistance. So she's probably time starved, not just cash starved. Probably a good idea to enlist her children with more responsibility, that's age appropriate. It's extra pairs of hands and she'll be also teaching them life skills. Instill a sense of responsibility, not a sense of entitlement.. Much of the cause of Asian men, not really helping domestically is because they've been brought up being waited upon by their female relatives. And not taught how to cook, clean. Just because he's does food industry job, doesn't mean he knows how to cook or clean effectively & efficiently. Especially when you're time and resources starved, you don't really have patience or can afford to start teaching someone from level 0. Collectively caring for their space, makes cleaning up easier and they'll have more time to do other things. My husband spent 3 years being coached to cook basics and clean. He still can't produce decent quality. Due to high ineffectiveness in his approach, housework and dirt pile up quicker than he can tackle it. Our compromise is, he's to hire a maid with his own pay, to do his work for him. I'm out of the house 12-14 hours a day while he's basically available all day to be at home and still get paid. So it's only reasonable that's he finds an alternative way to complete tasks that's still his responsibility.

I think perhaps they're too depressed to keep it clean, but when you live in a tiny space and don't have money you need to throw stuff away and limit your belonging. If things are in good condition, they can do what my parents did and sell things (but approach it as a good thing so the children aren't sad about getting rid of old toys or books they no longer use). If you look at the type of stuff they're keeping, it is quite clear they've fallen into the trap of being messy in a situation they really can't afford to be messy in. People who are poor find a better quality of life when they muster up the energy to keep their little space clean. Edit: Also, the children are adorable! They also seem happy despite their poverty, which is always a plus. I am sure they'll grow up appreciating what they have and hopefully finding better opportunities than their parents could.

I agree. If you fall into this trap of hoarding things in your little space, it will be difficult to get unstuck. Maybe I will offend others with my opinion and I'm sorry for it, but the parents should start getting rid of things they don't need. You got a tiny apt, why are you still accumulating more stuffs? Clean it all out and retain only what your family really needs - clothes, table, chairs, bed, school supplies, items for cooking and eating. The rest, get rid of them. If they wait on the govt to save them, that's gonna take a freaking long time bec of bureaucracy and corruption. Meanwhile, their family would just endure living in squalor for years and years adding more stuffs until they drown in them and become too depressed to help themselves? I think aside from providing humane housing, their govt should also provide social services that help them deal with their depression, that will motivate them to clean up, help themselves, to be dignified despite the poverty. But really the govt could only do so much, they need to help themselves.

And the husband does have a job, but it seems it's harsh on the hands and it took a couple of months to heal. Looking at the video, maybe he seems apathetic because he thought she was being too dramatic? Idk, it seems like he'll be back to work soon, once his hands get to their old strength. In any case, it's a clear case of hoarding, which is worse in a small apartment. The cage doors don't help morale, though.

I was puzzled by that whole situation. First she said he worked in the food industy. Then she said he wasn't working because he'd been sick for two months, then she said he couldn't work because he'd injured his hands. Might be a combination of bad translation and bad editing.

you could at least remove the mould on the ceiling, in a room where you prepare food for children. This has nothing to do with small space, come on...

@@choux7746 sorry that’s not an excuse, it’s just the fact. It’s totally normal to feel depressed and unmotivated living in such environment. Of course there are some people who are extra resilient, good for them. But houses this small shouldn’t exist at the first place.

@@VisulC you will feel more depressed living in an environment that is dirty. Doesn’t matter if they have a big house. If they can’t keep a small space clean then a big place will be harder to clean. No excuses…

I would split that livingroom into two floors, upper balcony all the way around and a short lower ceiling under the balcony. Windows at outter wall usually open, if it is an option. Courtyard in center so I can stand up. I would also try to make a full length window from sliding glass door with a Juliette balcony. Good LED lighting and solar outside as an awning. The bathroom would also be a wet room, and dishes would be done and stored in there if I had my own bathroom in that building. Just a dream, assuming the finances or scavenging can make it happen.

I mean she's got too much stuff in her apartment. What does do all day at home? She doesn't even work. Literally throw out all that shit and maybe you'll get some space ? I pity these children.
