Terrible tragedy of a 6 year old from a fatal misjudgement

Tweet

if you are a parent, learn from this terrible tragedy ( Malaysians are familiar with this recent tragic event a month ago) There was this couple with their 3 kids who had parked in front of a electrical appliance store, parents probably thought it will be a very quick, just hop in and out of the shop after buying something so they left the 3 kids in the car as they went into the store. Kids were a 7 year old , 6 year old and a 1 year old toddler respectively. just few minutes later when the parents returned to the car , 6 year old William Yau was nowhere to be seen, apparently he had gone off in search for the parents when his baby sister started crying non stop leaving his 7 year old brother in the car. A frantic search with the police and sniffer dogs and volunteer searchers yielded nothing , little 6 year old William Yau seem to have vanished without a trace. Then the police launched a massive search operation with nationwide publicity , police combed every inch of vicinity where boy was last seen, hundreds of people interviewed,evry possible angle investigated to no avail until 10 days later when a body of a child was found floating in a river 30 km from the scene.the badly decomposed body confirmed later to be that of the missing boy William Yau. . Now circumstances surrounded his death are still unclear, speculation has it that he wandered and fell into a storm drain and drowned and body floated downstream in the river till the eventual discovery. But there are some people who thinks that there is a more sinister cause .possible abduction and murder . Even the distraught parents have been accused , claiming child abuse that might have gotten out of hand. Police are still investigating all angles regarding the tragic demise of the boy. Lest we forget , in the beginning, just a little error in judgement and assuming that nothing untoward can happen leaving the children in the car for just a few minutes, which brought on this horrible outcome. point being , do not ever just assume and take it for granted that nothing can possibly happen especially involving children and leave them unattended , ..never ever do what was done with this tragic case, just assume kids will be fine unattended for just few minutes in the car, to think that if the children had gone into the electrical store with the parents, the tragedy would have been averted..
