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.

《广州日报》报道，调查显示，我国约30%的青年人是啃老族，他们不上学、不上班，也不接受培训，主要靠父母供养。

为了解决这个问题，第十一届全国政协委员、社会学研究所原所长景天魁建议，政府和社会团体为他们提供职业培训，大力促进就业并创造较好的创业环境。

而对于那些拒绝帮助、一味“啃老”的懒惰年轻人，他则建议取消其各种社会福利以起到鞭策作用。
