Imagine a 4-year-old child, innocent, immature and cute, at the happiest and most carefree age of life. He deserves to be frolicking and having fun on a sunny day, rather than being subjected to such inhumane torture.
However, not long ago, in Yangming Town, Heping County, Heyuan City, Guangdong Province, such a heinous tragedy really happened. On a sunny afternoon on April 13, Yu Moumou, a 4-year-old boy, went out to buy spicy noodles, but was dragged and abducted by three older children.
In just a few minutes, the "little devils" besieged, beaten, and robbed the boys. In the end, with some incomprehensible vicious motive, the innocent boy was poured with gasoline, lit a raging fire, and burned it fiercely!
Hearing the child's mournful cry for help, Yu Moumou's grandmother rushed over, only to see a flame slowly devouring the immature body, which was unbearable. Although he was rushed to the hospital, the boy eventually died of severe burns and poisoning.
This brutal and unjustified act of cruelty is undoubtedly a great blasphemy against human nature. People can't help but hate how this group of murderers deviated from the thinking of normal people, and they were so cold, so ruthless, and so outrageous!
However, when some netizens blame the incident on factors such as "lack of educational resources in remote and backward areas" and "lack of good tutors", we cannot deny it all. In fact, today's children do have a lot of room for improvement in terms of education and moral development.
According to the 2021 National Survey on Students' Moral Character, primary and secondary school students are not satisfactory in many aspects of public morality and morality, and it is in urgent need of strengthened guidance. Some of these include a lack of empathy and difficulty understanding the feelings of others.
It can be seen that such a tragedy has really sounded the alarm again. All sectors of society should pay more attention to quality education and cultivate children's empathy from an early age. In addition to book theories, it is also necessary to guide them to experience and establish correct life values.
Looking around today's society, whether it is the frequent occurrence of school violence and personal injury, or the distressing incidents caused by the distorted values of some teenagers, it is indeed caused by the improper education, training and guidance of children. If it is not taken seriously, society will be plagued and harassed by these hidden dangers for a long time.
The degree of social attention to this needs to be strengthened, and the top priority is to wait for the relevant departments to introduce more targeted policy measures. However, it is only through the concerted efforts of parents and society as a whole that this force for good is sufficient to give birth to and nurture the healthy growth of a new generation.
So, what is the latest development of the 4-year-old boy who was abused and killed by three children, and what will the local authorities do? We will wait and see.
