When the kid took off his hat it broke my heart. He got punished for a conflict he wasn’t even born for.

“Being poor makes us do risky things, because it’s better to do dangerous work than be a beggar” 💯

I'm out here dreading waking up in the morning to go wash dishes for my job. These guys wake up having to wonder whether or not they're gonna make it back to their families today. Videos like these remind me that I'm lucky and fortunate to not have to put my life in danger just to make money and should appreciate the position I'm in.

When the kid Say's "Even if I worked myself to death, I still won't be able to save a lot of money"
It really Broke my Heart 💔

[asianstreetmeat]

What a true man. Instead of begging or stealing he puts himself to work to provide for his family. What a true hero

[lorriecarrel]

that kid that wears the helmut, that beaks me inside..I think about my kids and then look at him on my screen and i have no words that could accurately describe what I feel

[pedrosantos]

"it's better to do dangerous work than to be a beggar"
Wise words.

Afghanistan's people have suffered the most in modern history, they were at worst from the 1800s. Wish the best of luck and happiness for these people. My heart goes out the nice, kind, and beautiful people.

That innocent face of a child brings tears to my eyes...I hope everything will be fine soon 🙏🏽

I was a medic in the Army and deployed in southern Afghanistan in 2012. Part way through my deployment, I responded to a local being injured from an explosion. Two kids were playing catch with an unexploded grenade in their farm field and it went off, injuring one of the kids. He was only 6 or 7. I treated him and had him med-evac'd, as he had shrapnel in his neck, but thankfully he lived with no real problems!

as an afghan, every mini doc hurts to watch but we cant help but to stay infromed about the ones in pain.

[danieljohnson]

Being poor makes us do risky things. What a quote, and universally true

[Unknown_Ooh]

I served as a combat medic in Afghanistan and the thing that hurt the most was working on pediatric patients. Peds is something they didn't train us for so it's a whole different ballgame and hits you differently compared to a serviceman who is shot and so on.

[ConanMiller]

Rust(iron oxide) on a part wouldn’t cause tetanus. The bacteria in the dirt covering it would.

[isaiahconley]

I served in Afghanistan and I'm deeply sorry for everything that west has done to that country and damage and waste left behind.

[Nicks]

It just makes me so sad that people and children are starving I'm writing this as tears fill my eyes

[reza]

He’s a real hero a brave man ❤Allah will protect him In sha Allah

[sonicflash]

I wish I had the power to help everybody in this world

[travelworld]

Innocent Children are bearing the repercussions of the war fought on petty issues. When will this sufferings end ? No one can take accountability for these mines but all want to advance their national interests, but at the cost of what... humanity?

[Imtheseeker]

This is what the so called world powers have done to the beautiful land of Afghanistan...hope future has something good to offer these people...more power to u 🇦🇫
