This 10-year-old boy proved that we are wrong if we only expect kindness acts from adults, sometimes children like him prove us wrong.
We often neglect the capabilities of young children, but we also can learn a lot from their pure hearts. Some children tend to help others, especially the ones in need.
A 10-year-old boy went viral in 2015 after a Reddit user (Bluecollarclassicist) posted his photo.
The user saw this boy walking down the street, who was not alone but walking with a young deer. The photo was posted with this caption: “There is a blind deer in our neighborhood and this boy (10 yrs old) walks her from one grass patch to another every day before school to make sure she finds food.
”
The deer was blind and kind-hearted boy just wanted to help the deer. Unfortunately, government officials do not think to do something for injured or disabled animals.
They just put them down instead. Other users motivated the person to contact a wildlife rescue who can help the deer and might even save its life. Eventually, the user updated the post.
The update reads, “The deer is getting picked up today by a local animal rescue group (NOT animal control) and taken to a vet for assessment. It will likely be tagged and taken to a controlled forest preserve but they did say that since she seemed so docile that she might end up in an approved farm or petting zoo.”
The Illinois Department of Natural Resources adopted the animal. They are a licensed wildlife rehabilitation group and they are legally authorized to treat and shelter different kinds of animals.
Talking about the boy, the Reddit user further wrote, “He showed a lot of love and respect and my wife and I are going to talk to his mom about a way she would want to see his act of kindness rewarded. ”
This photo is four years old but always remind us about humanity. People from all over the world are still sharing the story because this is something that will inspire others, and teach them about kindness.
