A boy of 11 called a German police emergency line to complain of "forced labor" after his mother told him to help clean the home, BBC reports.

Police say the boy complained: "I have to work all day long. I haven't any free time."

His mother explained he had called after being asked to pick up paper from the floor, adding: "He plays all day long and when told to tidy up what he's done, he calls it forced labor."(点击英国广播公司网站查看原文)
