1. Check her age

2. Find out whether her father and /or uncles own firearms.

3. Ask yourself - do you really want to do this?

4. Has she got a job?

 

Apart from no. 1 there are no laws but 2 3 and 4 you might find more important.

If you are not married and the girl is under 18 the answers is "Yes" - you are technically committing a crime (assuming you are a man of course!).  But since there are a few hundred thousand criminals committing this crime in Beijing you may be on the enforcement "waiting list" for a decade or two.

Every problem has a solution. If you are a teacher with problems, contact the CFTU

P.S. This law varies from province to province and surprisingly, Chinese law makes no allowances for roommates!

You can live with one, but cohabitation is over the line.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
