Suing for love Pictures - CBS News Suing for love Zhang Zefang, 94, sits on her bed in her house in Fusheng Village, China, March 19, 2013. Zhang is among a growing group of elderly Chinese who have resorted to suing their children in a desperate bid for care. In China, where aid is scarce and family loyalty is a cornerstone of society, more than 1,000 parents have already sued their children for financial support over the last 15 years. But in December, the government went further, and amended its elder care law to require that children also support their parents emotionally. Children who don't visit their parents can be taken to court - by mom and dad. Credit: Eugene Hoshiko/AP
