NINGXIA, CHINA — Videos of a six-year-old girl taking care of her paralyzed father have gone viral in China.

Tian Jia Jia, a six-year-old girl, has been taking care of her paralyzed father Tian Haicheng for the past year and documenting their lives on a Chinese live-streaming site.

Her father was left paralyzed from his chest and below after a car accident two years ago, according to reports from Chinese media. Around two months after the accident, Tian's wife said she was going back to her hometown. She took her son with her and never returned.

Tian's parents were there to help out, but his daughter Jia Jia decided to take the responsibility upon herself. Internet commentators praised the six-year-old for being so devoted to her father and for being so responsible at such a young age.
