Categories: East Asia, China, Education, Humor, Women & Gender

Offbeat China introduced a new popular TV program called “Where Are We Going, Dad?”. The show arranges five celebrity dads and their young kids to fulfill various outdoor tasks in the form of competition without the presence of moms. Below is one of the netizens’ comment quoted by the blogger:

‘Where Are We Going, Dad?’ becomes a hit show not only because it’s based on a new and interesting idea, but more importantly because it echoes our society’s thirst and expectations of more care and love from dads.
