Beijing (CNN) -- A video of a toddler crying while
running in the snow nearly naked has sparked a firestorm in China, but
the boy's father says the exercise was meant to strengthen his son.
"It's tough for me, too, when he cried out for my comfort," father He Liesheng said. "But I believe in 'no pain, no gain.' Like an eagle, I push my child to the limit so he can learn how to fly."
The father shot and posted the online video clip showing his 4-year-old son running down a snow-covered street, wearing only shoes and underpants.
In the footage, the boy -- nicknamed Duoduo -- chases his father, sobs and begs to be picked up.
"Daddy, Daddy please hold me," Duoduo cries in the video, which was filmed while the family was in Flushing, New York on vacation. Full Read
