In the eyes of many people, the racecourse is a new experience place and a synonym for parent-child activity parks. Parents are full of joy and bring their children into equestrian experience, hoping to build happy and precious memories on horseback. However, the occurrence of the accident was like a heavy blow, which made the hearts of parents fall into coldness. The death of a child is not only a tragedy for a family, but also a pain for the whole society. Why does an equestrian experience that is for fun suddenly change its tone and catch people off guard?

Recreate the scene of the incident, a child dragged by a horse, frightened all the way, desperate all the way. The tragedy was captured on video from the scene. At the time of the accident, the surrounding adults were already trying their best to intercept it, but the rescue was unsuccessful. The child's life seems to have been taken away tightly by the sudden hand of fate.

The child's father spoke out in deep grief and revealed the news that the child had passed away. This voice is not only sad, but also reveals a trace of helplessness and confusion. In the midst of media inquiries, the grief-stricken father is negotiating compensation with the racecourse. And the word "compensation" has become so pale and weak. A life that cannot be measured in money, a trauma of the mind that cannot be remedied in any form, this is a cruel reality that no parent can accept.

This sudden misfortune has also sparked a discussion about security awareness. Some voices pointed out that parents' awareness of safety precautions is weak. Indeed, safety should always be covered in every family play. But on the other hand, can parents foresee all the possible risks? No one can predict that such a tragic scene will be staged in an equestrian activity that is supposed to train children's courage and physique?

While witnessing the great loss of family and widespread concern in society, it is also reflective whether our society has invested enough in education and safety in promoting experiential education and outdoor activities. Is an accident a leak in supervision and a lack of safety measures exposed?

Can this society understand and resonate with the anxieties of parents and those who have experienced them? In the face of this accident, how can we introspect ourselves and how can we prevent the tragedy from repeating itself? Every life is precious, and it is our common responsibility to protect them. While enjoying living in harmony with nature, how can we better teach our children to respect life and act cautiously, and whether our education can provide a more stable environment for children's safety is a question that we must all ponder today.

At present: negotiations are already underway, but the child will not come back

Accidents and tomorrow really don't know which one will come!
