And yet...suicide is the #1 cause of death in young chinese adults. The suicide rate in China is 50% higher than the global average.

From 2005 - Guardian.UK
Quote:
Suicide is the main cause of death among young adults in China, the state media said yesterday in a report that highlights the growing pressures to succeed in love, work and education in one of the world's fastest changing societies.
Increasing stress, loneliness and a lack of medical support for depression are thought to have contributed to an annual suicide toll that is estimated at 250,000 people a year
I, personally, don't believe in abuse, no matter how great a motivator it is.
