Every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment to grow and thrive.
It is a tragedy when the innocence of childhood is marred by the superstitions and irrational beliefs of adults. Superstitions often lead to harmful practices such as witch hunts, child sacrifices, or denying medical treatment in favor of traditional remedies. Such actions can result in physical and emotional suffering for children, robbing them of their right to a healthy and happy childhood. It is our responsibility as a society to protect our children from the harmful consequences of superstitions, promoting education and critical thinking to ensure their well-being and future free from unnecessary suffering.
