In a less then 24 hours I witnessed two situations that really shocked me. I didn't know what to do, I didn't know what to say. It was all about negligence, on purpose or not, I really don't care. At the end, the children are the one who suffer the most.
They say that children are the future of every society, so if it continues like this Macedonia won't have healthy future.

Situation No.1 : Last night, after having a nice long ride on my bike, I was resting with my friends in the city park. This is the place, where young people usually are gathering in the evening during the hot summer. It is always so crowd, but it is nice. It is full of positive energy. And as we were sitting on the park benches, a very young homeless gypsy boy has approached us. Than came the first shock. He was smoking. Somehow we managed to force him to drop the cigar. He was all shaking with his head. And then came the second more horrific shock. He pulled out a plastic bag out of his pocket and started to inhale something. We were 99% sure that he inhaled glue, which is common substitute for drugs among homeless and poor people. And do you know what was really sad? This gypsy boy was maximum 7 years old!
Situation No.2 : Today, it was about 1 o`clock afternoon and it was so hot. On my balcony, under the shadow it was 37 degrees. I was writing some e-mails, when I heard some music. I went to my balcony to see what is all about, and there was amazing scene going on in front of my building. There were 3 rows of red official chairs and they were placed under the shadow. There were some people sitting and between them was the Minister of Defence. So far there is nothing unusual about that. But, in front of these official people there were some 30 to 40 kids who were performing some show, and there were also some flags and patriotic songs. These children were at maximum age of 12. And they were having this performance for at least an hour and half under inhumane conditions. If it was 37 degrees under the shadow, you can imagine how many degrees it was under the sun at 1 o`clock. 42 or maybe 45 degrees? Who knows?!? My point is that they were under the sun for 2 hours, performing some pointless socialistic-like show and the Minister of Defence was cooling under the shadow. I mean, hello?!?! It is 45 degrees. I wonder, who was so "smart" to came up with such a nice idea. Does anyone of those officials care about the health of those dear and innocent children? I really don't know what to say.
Above, I have described two situations which happened in timeline less than 24 hours. Two cases of negligence, and of course the adults are the one to blame for. In the first case there was negligence from the parents and in the second case there was institutional negligence. However children were suffering in both situations. Where is the sense for humanity? Where is the sense of care for our children? They are our country's future. Aaaargh! I am so angry!

Angry, too!
You're absolutely right though I'd say "negligence" is simply too soft word. We are talking of things gone out of control, of insanity!
I 100% agree with you, my dear friend Hibizla.
Maybe in the next report I should change it in to ...
