  A 61­-year-­old father sent his daughter to study abroad in the United States ten years ago. But he said it was “the worst decision of his life”.

Zhang Yong told GuangzhouDaily last Tuesday that his daughter, Zhang Li, went to the US for further study at an American university. In the end, she married an American man and never returned to her hometown.

Zhang is a retiree(退休人员) who used to work in an electronic parts factory. He said he had sacrificed(牺牲) lots of things for his daughter's education. He had ever sold his 110­  square­meter house and moved to a smaller apartment to save up money.

At first, he and his family were so proud that Zhang Li got accepted to a great school. But Zhang Yong now says he worries that nobody will care for him and his 60­-year-­old wife, Zhu Jing, in their old age.

He used to call his daughter three times a day, but Zhang Li hardly speaks to her family anymore now. “We haven't been in touch with her for two weeks，” said Zhang.
