Two-year-old boy died of starvation
— Fatherhood — 1 min read
They found him curled up at his fathers legs. He was left in the dark and must have been terrified and so confused.”
This is a quote from a tragic event that unfolded in the UK.
The father was living with his 2 year old and he died of heart attack. The boy died of hydration and starvation.
When I read this I was crying, I was crying for the boy, for the father, for our society. Have we really come to this? Nobody was looking out for them two whole weeks? Did nobody from the neighboorhood notice anything? He was a small boy, he must have been crying out his lungs, nobody noticed...
Everybody was busy with their lives.
