A 12-year-old girl suddenly screamed and bit her own hands when her mother refused to give her chocolate in Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport on Thursday morning, attracting many curious passengers.

The mother, surnamed Lao, had to explain to airport staff and the many viewers that her daughter contracted intermittent mania and would become ill after her request was refused.

Lao, who wanted to fly to the United States, originally refused to provide any chocolate because of her daughter's allergic skin. But to calm her down, she had to buy some chocolates from a nearby duty free store.
