Meaning:

    “生” is short for “生活,” which means “life,” “白” is short for “白痴,” which means “idiot,” and “族” refers to a group of people sharing similarities. This term refers to young people who cannot handle their daily chores, such as washing clothes, cooking meals or even tying their shoe laces, because they have been spoiled by their over-protective and indulgent parents. Such people are called “idiots in life.”
