HKY014 Young Girl w/Baby Brother & Puppy

As Hong Kong rapidly grew and prospered it meant both Mothers and Fathers often had to work full-time jobs away from home.

That meant older siblings usually were tasked with looking after their younger brothers and sisters and perhaps, even the family pet.

This young teenager certainly has her hands full as she carries her younger brother on her back as she cradles an even younger puppy to her chest.

Hong Kong children in those days were very resourceful and useful to their parents and took over a host of household duties while Mum and Dad were hard at work.
