😥 Not in the pond. The child's death by drowning in the bathroom bucket. What a heartbreaking incident.
🥲 Last night -
Mother was making tea at 11 PM. The child was playing with father. In a moment, when he went out of the room to another room, the father didn’t pay much attention. But in that moment, the child went inside the bathroom. No one noticed.
When the child could not be found anywhere.
Upon entering the bathroom, it is found that the child is upside down in the bucket water. Unconscious.
He was declared dead when taken quickly to Dhaka Medical.
Only eighteen months old 💔
When the child learns to put something in the mouth, we keep away things that they might swallow.
When learning to crawl, I keep an eye so they don’t fall off the bed.
When they learn to walk, I make sure they don’t go into the kitchen. So they can’t touch hot pots or sharp knives. I keep the kitchen closed.
So that they can’t touch the electric line. So that they don’t fall off the table and chairs. I keep an eye on that.
I keep the bathroom door closed so that they don’t slip and hit their head inside. I don’t let them go into the commode. I avoid keeping water in the bucket for this fear.
How much does it take to keep a child healthy and safe? From waking up until going to bed.
The struggle seems more about keeping the child safe than nurturing them!
Still feels pain. Even after so much caution, mistakes happen. The pain leaves a deeper mark on our hearts than on theirs.
Due to a little carelessness. The child lost its life due to the wrong decision of not locking the bathroom.
Let’s learn a bit from these serious mistakes of others. Everyone should be a little cautious.
