Two toddlers, aged 1 and 3, were found starved to death on June 21 after being left home alone in Nanjing, Jiangsu province. Their father was put behind bars in February on charges of providing shelter for drug addicts, and the mother has a history of drug abuse.
Qian said the shelter will accept children in such environments in the future.
"Children whose parents are drug addicts, alcoholics and serving jail terms or those under nobody's care will be sent to the shelter," he said.
Zhu Miao, an official with the juvenile section of the Shanghai High People's Court, said she hopes the shelter will promote the establishment of a feasible and complete custody system for children in the municipality, which will take the lead in the country.
She said her office is writing a proposal to the Shanghai Municipal People's Congress about the child welfare regulation.
"For children who live with irresponsible parents, the regulation should designate other guardians for foster care or government and social organizations to provide care," she said.
