Cry Of A Kid

​Every time I hear a kid crying,
I feel like crying too.

Kid in tears

​It's painful to listen to it,
and it breaks my heart.
A kid is helpless 
and at the mercy of the adult
who causes him to cry.
If only I could help him
and confront the guy,
but it's none of my business
because I'm just a neighbor
and I'm not related to them
in any way.
But still,
it has to stop.
Making a kid cry for hours
is child abuse,
harsh words directed to the kid
is verbal abuse,
and worst would be physical abuse
that I hope won't happen.
There's no point 
in minding other family's business
when you don't know 
so much about them
and you don't know 
what really goes on 
inside the house they're in.
But if worst thing happens,
or if the child or kid
is injured in any way,
then that's the time 
that neighbors or anybody concern
should take action
by calling on the authorities.

These are some of the street children of Cebu City, Philippines sleeping beside the road because they have nowhere else to sleep in.

​Children and kids
are hope for the future
and they will be the ones
leading the way for humanity.
They are still young, 
lacking experience in everything
so adults should have patience
in dealing with them.
They don't know much about this world
so adults shouldn't be harsh or cruel
so that they will learn easy.
Being harsh and cruel is violence
and violence will turn kids
into violent adults in the future. 

Dealing with children and kids
is a huge responsibility
especially when you're a parent.
Remember that your children 
are innocent in your decision
to have a family,
it's not their doing.
So parents should cope with everything
in ways that are full of love and care,
totally non-violent 
and wholly positive
so that the children will grow
to be good and full of love in their hearts.
The role of parents 
in shaping their children
is the one role
that is forgotten by many 
who are not responsible enough
to take care of the family
that they themselves built.
Family in the first place
should be planned carefully
with 2nd, 3rd, 4th thoughts 
as possible.
And family should be built 
on the foundation of love 
so that it will be as strong as a rock
that can never be shaken or destroyed.
