I Shall Fear No Evil


7 Yr old Boy Murdered at Gurgaon Ryan International School. Are you going to live in fear or are you going to fight back?

As a child i used to think Exorcist was the scariest thing out there, then i became a mom and knew what real fear was. Not a day has gone by when i was not scared to death for my babies. Those first few days when i used to hold a mirror to my sleeping baby's nose to see it fog up with her sweet breath, those first few steps when my heart used to stop every time she stumbled and those millions of sleepless nights when she was sick, taught me what real fear was.It taught me that as a parent you can do everything to protect your child, but you have to stand by while nature take its course.It also taught me that as a parent my biggest strength to fight any fear was HOPE & LOVE. 
BUT LOSING A CHILD TO CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE IS NOT NATURAL AND I WILL NOT SIMPLY STAND BY.
We hope to never ever let something like this happen to our children. We take every precaution to prevent it ...but what if it does happen? What if our worst fears come true? What if we lose our baby to this evil? Are we equipped with enough knowledge of our justice system to bring about the justice to our child memory?
Those first moments after that horrible call  which devastates a parents life is when you lose your mind. You can't believe. Shock, Confusion, Guilt, Rage are just a few of the thousand emotions that tear us up.It becomes difficult to breathe let alone remember that your child still needs you to fight for him.
But for the legal system those first few hours are critical to gather evidence, record statements and catch the culprit. This is when we as parents have to be the strongest. Its imperative for us to know our rights as a parent and the protection offered by our Legal System.
Do not  fear, nor wait for disaster to strike.Be prepared if not for yourself then for someone you might be the only helpline.
Read the law.
Call helpline numbers to know to see what help they offer.
Call your local police Dept to understand your first response actions to this crime.
Pray it never happens to any child but do not Live in fear ...Live for Retribution 
Swift & Brutal. Let the law take it from there. Remember you are not alone .Every parents support is there for you. Just ask.
