In Australia, a boy of the age of ten died due to an ear infection. It was reported that the house he was living in was no where near healthy standards. Apparently it reeked with the stench of feces, rotten food, sweat, and urine. There were layers and layers of garbage around the house, and yet a grown adult who was the boy’s mother and his sister lived there as well. The boy was complaining about his ear and he had a fever as well as a bloody ear. He was taken to a local health clinic where they suggested that he be taken to hospital for immediate and proper treatment. Instead of taking the advice, his mother chose to take him home and give him antibiotics she saw fit. Jared Roberts died twenty minutes later.
For goodness sake!
First of all, motherly instincts—take your kid to the damn hospital for treatment. And second, you have two kids to be concerned with, why the hell is your house in that condition?! I can’t imagine anyone that would allow their living space to get so out of hand and see hands on that it is affecting their family.
Where are our priorities? Where do we draw the line between wellness and laziness? Things seem to be going downhill these days. There needs to be a change, and like the first blog on this site… the changes starts with us.
