The parents realized their child was in the water and that her leg had been amputated by the boat’s propeller, according to the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.

    Yes, tragic stories are how you actually get through to people. Learning from other people’s mistakes is crucial, and the best way to ensure that this happens is to tell people stories which they will take lessons from.

      We should definitely rethink all of education on this premise 👍

      Better to help the people who are to stupid to survive everyday life with vague allegorical stories than to help the people who are so weak that they get mentally ill from the constant stream of tragedy that is modern day media.

      On the other hand, isn’t there a global trend where people stop consuming any news at all on the base that they feel like they’re getting sick from it?

      And I don’t even own a boat 😢

        Well, I don’t think we should base our education system on it, but ya, I agree with the rest of your comment
