Far from the tree?

When an angel-like child morphs into a bete noire, parents are often implicated in his wrongdoings, especially when they have fame or power. But the urge for social equality should not compromise the impartiality of the law.
Li Shuangjiang, now 74, had a son when he was 57. It is natural that the father dotes on his boy. But the famous singer's child - his pride and joy - has given him a torrent of grief.
Li Tianyi, born in 1996 - some sources suspect the year of his birth was 1992 - has grown up to become a bully.
In September 2011, the youngster was found guilty of viciously beating someone who got into a fender bender with him and was put away for one year for juvenile delinquency. The senior Li visited the victim and apologized.
