• This have been the most cruel thing I have ever seen in person... and hate myself for not doing something about it!

  
  

  A few days back I went shopping with Jimmy, Javon and my sister.  On our way back from the mall approaching a stop light this little boy came running off the sidewalk onto the street.   Jimmy stepped on the brakes just in time where there was no more than three feet between the car and this little boy who seem to be about three years old.

  
  

  I saw the mother standing with her back turned towards a corner store with another child who's about five and then out came this man (supposedly the father) runs onto the street grab the little boy and with a closed fist started throwing punches at him.  He was hitting this little child so hard that it look as if the boy's back was folding into two half's.   Then he reaches down picked the child up and started to shake him in the air screaming.

  
  

  It all happened so fast and seem too cruel to be true.  I don't know which one would have cause the little boy more pain .... being hit by the car or being punch like a grown man by his father?

  
  

  I couldn't stop thinking about it and almost every time it came to mind I pray that such cruelty may never be inflicted into another child's life.  I can't stop asking God to protect that little child and keep him safe from that person I saw hit him.
