A survey shows that about 30 percent of Chinese youth are NEETs -- people currently "not in education, employment or training," and are supported by their parents, the Guangzhou Daily reported.

To tackle this problem, Jing Tiankui, a member of the 11th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and former director of the Institute of Sociology, suggested the government and social organizations offer professional trainings to the NEETs, create more jobs and build a good environment for them to start their own business.

While for those lazy ones whose decline helps and "bites" their parents, he advised to spur them by canceling their social welfare.

《廣州日報》報道，調查顯示，我國約30%的青年人是啃老族，他們不上學、不上班，也不接受培訓，主要靠父母供養。

為了解決這個問題，第十一屆全國政協委員、社會學研究所原所長景天魁建議，政府和社會團體為他們提供職業培訓，大力促進就業并創造較好的創業環境。

而對于那些拒絕幫助、一味“啃老”的懶惰年輕人，他則建議取消其各種社會福利以起到鞭策作用。
