If they need social systems to support them, I am all for that (its good regardless, and I'm not in China so I have very little voice for them/understanding of what is available)
But the article just presents the authors editorialized view, which is from a government planning perspective, not from the perspective of what is good for these young people (or what they think would benefit them). So I take with a grain of salt the authors judgement of their choices, satisfaction, or opinion of what is "right" for them.
