A moving vehicle hit a little child on her way to school this morning, and honestly, it was one of the most painful things I have seen. 💔😭

Please, parents, I’m begging you let’s be more careful with our children. If you can afford it, please choose a school close to home or make arrangements to take your child to school and bring them back safely.

A child below 10 years old should not have to face busy roads alone. I see little children walking to school by themselves every single day, crossing major roads while heavy vehicles and motorcycles pass around them. Even as an adult, I’m scared to cross the road.

Sometimes we get so focused on education that we forget the most important thing the child has to be alive and safe to enjoy that education.

Imagine sending your child to school in the morning, expecting to see that innocent smile again in the afternoon, only to receive a heartbreaking phone call instead. 💔

Please, let’s not wait until tragedy happens before we realize how vulnerable these little ones are.

No school is worth losing a child’s life. Please protect them.
