A 29-year-old man in Nanjing, Jiangsu, stopped eating for three days in protest that the family did not have a TV set repaired in a timely manner.

The young man, surnamed Xiao, apparently had been spoiled by his family for his entire life. He has been jobless for more than a year. Every day, instead of looking for work, he stays at home, watching TV, and speaks rarely to his family.

Recently Xiao suddenly stopped eating, causing his parents some anxiety. He resumed eating only after his father realized that his TV set had broken down.
