(Clearwisdom.net) We say that children's faces are bright and that you can see them everywhere, but we don't see the light of joy on the faces of Huang Ying, Chi Yujing, or Huhu. They might have been bright before, but now, what they project is separation from their parents. Two-year-old Huang Ying kissed her mother's photo and said, “I miss my mommy.” Her mother, Luo Zhixiang, was persecuted to death by 610 Office officials in Tianhe District, Guangzhou Province on December 4, 2002. After living with her grandparents for some time in a dark and nearly collapsed dirt house in Linqiu County, Shandong Province, she and her father Huang Guohua escaped to Thailand. People asked if they'd broken any national laws, but of course they didn't. They only believed in Falun Gong.

两岁的黄颖:“想妈妈。
Two-year-old Huang Ying: “I miss my mommy.”
六岁的池俞憬:“想爸爸。
Six-year-old Chi Yujing: “I miss my daddy.”
七岁的虎虎:“妈妈,接虎虎回家。
Seven-year-old Huhu: “Mommy, please take me home.”

Mr. Chi Huiwen from Yanji, Jilin Province, endured long-term harassment from the Yannan Police Station director, because he tried to defend his right to practice Falun Gong. He was persecuted to death on April 22, 2004, leaving behind his six-year-old daughter Chi Yujing.

Seven-year-old Huhu is the son of Ms. Zhu Tong, an assistant professor at Tsinghua University. She holds a Master's degree from the Institute of Microelectronics, Tsinghua University. She was sentenced to 11 years in prison in April 2004. Currently, Huhu lives with his grandparents. In the summer of 2001, Huhu had to say goodbye to his mother, who was displaced at the time. With tears in his eyes, he looked at his mother and said, “Mommy, please take me home where there are no bad guys.”

According to incomplete statistics, over 3,419 Falun Gong practitioners were persecuted to death by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) from July 1999 to March 2011. Nearly ten thousand practitioners were illegally sentenced, and hundreds of thousands of practitioners were taken to forced labor camps. Their children lost their loved ones forever, or were immersed in long-term separation, waiting for their loved ones, themselves suffering from shame, fear, grief, and confusion. We received this information by breaking through the CCP's Internet firewall. The actual situation is likely much more serious.

五岁的王净:“为什么不跟我玩?
Five-year-old Wang Jing, “Why don't you play with me?”
十岁的张家瑞:“别歧视我!
Ten-year-old Zhang Jiarui, “Don't discriminate against me!”

Five-year-old Wang Jing is the son of Chongqing practitioners Ms. Duan Shiqoing and Mr. Wang Zhihai. In July 2001, his father suffered persecution at the Xinhua Forced Labor Camp in Mianyang, Sichuan Province. On September 17, 2003, his mother was persecuted to death at the Chengdu Detention Center in Sichuan Province. Wang Jing now lives with his grandparents. Poisoned by the CCP's lies, other children laughed at and verbally abused him. Little Wang Jing lived his life in depression and grief. Seven-year-old Zheng Xianchu from Changchun had a very similar experience. In order to survive the school environment, he couldn't even mention his parents' real names in front of other people.

If you could meet ten-year-old Zhang Jiarui from Daqing, Heilongjiang Province, you would know instantly how he feels by looking at his face. In December 2004, Zhang Bin (Zhang Jiarui's father) was arrested again, then detained at the Suihua Forced Labor Camp, where he suffered brutal persecution. Zhang Jiarui was in the third grade of elementary school at the time. His mother Cheng Qinglan said, “Since he couldn't get love and care from his father for a long time, he was discriminated against by his classmates, teachers, and people in other environments. He has low self-esteem, is depressed, and his academic achievement has fallen. This directly impacts him both emotionally and physically.”

万如意:“我怕那些坏人!”
Wan Ruyi, “I am afraid of those bad guys.”

刘响:“我怕孤儿院!”
Liu Xiang, “I am afraid of the orphanage.”

Another CCP policy of suppressing Falun Gong is to “physically eliminate” the practitioners. Their policy of terror has created fear on children's faces. Four-year-old Wan Ruyi from Nanchang, Jiangxi Province showed how scared she was to even walk in a park, as her family is sometimes monitored by CCP police, “Those bad guys are following us. It's so scary!” Her father, Wan Liji, was formerly a police officer on the Donghu Team of Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. He suffered brutal torture for five years and became handicapped by the CCP because he would not give up Falun Gong. He passed away on February 9, 2004 at only 34 years of age. Currently, Wan Ruyi and her family are making a living from her mother's small business. Wan Ruyi still often has the urge to call her father.

Eleven-year-old Liu Xiang from Shenzhen is most afraid of the orphanage because it is monitored by CCP personnel. His parents were former teachers at Nantou Middle School in Shenzhen. Wang Xiaodong, Liu Xiang's mother, was persecuted to death in July 2003 at the Nanshan Detention Center in Shenzhen. His father Liu Xifeng was sentenced to a 10-year prison term in December 2003, and is still imprisoned in Sihui Jail. Liu Xiang now lives in fear at the orphanage in Shenzhen because it is monitored by CCP staff. He knows he would be pursued by the police if he escaped from the orphanage.

Liu Xiaotian from Yongzhou, Hunan Province was once pursued by the CCP police. On November 23, 2001, he heard that the officers who persecuted his parents to death went to his school looking for him. He was very frightened, and he left everything behind and ran away from the school. He hid in a neighbor's storage room for one night. Two to three days later, seven to eight officers went to his neighbor and threatened him, so he sought refuge with his uncle. A few months later, police discovered that he was staying at his uncle's home. His uncle asked a friend for help and sent him to a huge storage unit. He stayed there for over one year. Later, his uncle borrowed a lot of money and sent him to Denmark.

孙明远:“还我爸爸妈妈!”

Sun Mingyuan, “Return my daddy and my mommy!”

杨盛伟和妹妹:“打死我也要你们还我妈妈!”

Yang Shengwie and his younger sister, “I will ask you to return my mommy even if you beat me to death!”

After he obtained his refugee status in Denmark, Liu Xiaotian heard the news that his parents had been persecuted to death.

The young boy with a paper board hanging in front of his chest is Sun Mingyuan from Jilin Province. His parents believe in Falun Gong's principles of “Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance.” His father Sun Qian was sentenced to 12 years in prison. His mother Ma Chunli was held in the Dehui Detention Center in December 2004, and was persecuted nearly to death. Sun Mingyuan became alone and had to live with his grandaunt. On the morning of the 2005 Chinese Festival, he hung a paper board in front of his chest and stood in front of the Business Building of Dehui. On the paper board, he wrote about the suffering of his parents, in an effort to call attention to the issue. He hoped that someone would give him some help to reunite him with his parents as soon as possible.

The young boy carrying his younger sister on his back is Yang Shengwei. They went to the police station to ask the officials to return their mother. His face was bruised from when he was kicked by an officer the previous day at the Fusong County Police Station. Thirteen-year-old Shengwei carried his three-year-old sister on his back to the Fusong County Police Station in Baishan, Jilin Province, to ask for their mother's return. His mother Yang Zhonghong was arrested on September 19, 2006 while she was clarifying the truth about Falun Gong. During her detention, she was tied to an iron chair while being threatened and interrogated.

These children have many questions that they want answers to. Fifth grade student Liu Mohan from An County, Jilin Province wanted to ask the CCP officials, “Why did you torture and kill my father Liu Chengjun? What was wrong with him telling people the facts? Why?” Xu Shuai from Jilin started practicing Falun Gong when she was six years old, and wants to ask, “Why do you forbid people from practicing Falun Gong? Why did you persecute my father to death? Why did you persecute my grandpa to death? Based on what?”

These children's faces are full of longing for their loved ones, feeling humiliation, fear, anger, grief and confusion. These represent just a few examples. These gloomy faces are still suffering heavily in the darkness of today's mainland China.
