PUNISH THE PARENTS FOR NEGLIGENCE

It is difficult to educate and bring up a child nowadays. Many faults lie on the negligence of the parent. Today’s news is another example. The government should bring the parents to the court. It is illegal to ride on the tractor as the purpose is mainly for plantation and other usage. Further more, the child is just 10 year old. The child still cannot decide anything alone yet and need the guidance of the parent. This is where the parent will play their role. This mishap would not happen if the parents watch over their child. I just do not want to see this situation happen again and again. For the case of missing children being abducted is also parents to be blame. If your child is playing outside the house, look after them. Accidents happened without us realising. Do not let them play out of the house alone or without supervision. It will only make the policemen and the community to search for just one missing child endlessly for the mistakes the parents made. Do not push blame on others as if you are a very caring parent but because of your negligence just once.
