A handout photo. A husband in China demands US$15,000 in compensation for housework and caring for two children over eight years in divorce case.A court in China has awarded a single father 30,000 yuan in compensation for raising his two children alone after the breakdown of his marriage.

Zhang told the court that he had taken on sole responsibility for the couple's children and the housework. He said Lin did not provide any support, financial or otherwise, for the children. The court ruled that Lin must pay a one-off lump sum of 30,000 yuan to Zhang for the years he'd spent raising the children. Zhang agreed to be the children's sole provider after the divorce and did not seek ongoing maintenance from Lin.

"30,000 yuan is really too small. For those who look after the housework, regardless of whether they are male or female, they deserve to get more compensation in any divorce, don't they?" said one commenter.
