Thats cheating as a gymnast too - less ground to clear with a smaller body. A smaller frame of a child has many advantages over an adult frame in this sport.

No matter what age they start competing at, I don't think the government should be allowed to take these children from their families at the age of 3 in order to make them show pieces for national pride.

Seems to be that way. But as a member of a "fringe political group" (inside jab), I feel I must protest the human rights side of this controversy. It may have been that way for ages, but it doesn't have to continue (although, I'm sure it will).

There is no human rights for Communists. Never has been, never will be. Hence why we've been fighting it since WWII.

SUB, didn't you read Animal Farm? ALL animals are equal. But some are more equal than others.
