Migrant workers' children reunite with parents

Photo taken on July 30, 2010 shows ten-year-old Xiao Han (L, front) with a bag of pears for his parents in his hands walking out of Guangzhou Railway Station in Guangzhou, capital of south China's Guangdong Province. Along with other children whose parents are migrant-working in the coastal Guangdong Province, Xiao Han and his 13-year-old sister Xiao Fen came to Guangdong to reunite with their parents, both of whom they had not seen for almost two years. The local government of Shaoyang County of Hunan Province organized a four-day regathering for some migrant-working parents who are busy working in Guangdong Province to stay with their children for a while. By the end of the regathering on Aug. 2, Xiao's mother decided to return home with her children to give them more love and care during their growth. Since millions of migrant workers are busy working in other cities and cannot go back home to stay with their children, local authorities have provided various help to cope with this problem.
