I Took My 80-Year-Old Dad to a Chinese Public Dentist — It Cost $0

#China #OnlyChild #RealLife #Shanghai #ChineseHealthcare #Dentist #PublicHospital I'm an only child in China. My dad is 80. He can't use a smartphone, so when his tooth started hurting, he didn't tell me — I had to ask. Today I'm taking him to a public hospital in Shanghai for dental work. CT scan, diagnosis, treatment — all covered by China's national health insurance. Out of pocket? Zero. This is what it's really like being the only child of an aging parent in China. No siblings to share the load. No one else to count on. If you want to see more real life in China, subscribe.
