Title - Father kills daughter, 2, then self
Author - Richard Charran
"On a hilltop overlooking the Gulf of Paria, Vishal Nigel Ramdeen gave his two-year-old daughter a poisoned soft drink as they sat in his car parked on a roadside. He waited for her to drink, reclined her seat, and waited for her to die. Then he killed himself".
It is so heartrending to see the lives of our young ones being snatched from them helplessly. What makes this situation worst is the fact that the assailant is the father of this innocent child. I strongly agree with the advise of the Pundit (Hindu Priest) that we must make decisions and not pass judgments. Even though the relationship between the parents may have been a bit unsteady, the welfare of the child should have been given first preference. Taking their lives is definitely not an option as there are numerous alternatives available to ensure that these children benefit fully from life. As parents, we should adapt a more approachable personality to life giving way for valuable criticisms and work mutually in keeping families together.
