Another News that Give Me a "Goosebumps"

I don't know whether 'goosebumps' is the right word. But I really feel the heartache when reading this news.

But I really cannot understand how a son is afraid or whatever the reasons listen to his wife to abandon his father at the roadside. Some father might not be a very good father but that is their part and they are answerable for that.

But a son is not supposed to say even a little 'no' to his farther. And it is a son's responsibility to look for his parents.

Yesterday, I got the same feeling when reading the news about a one year boy whose slipped from his father's arm while struggling and fell down 5 storey apartment and immediately died.

"Semoga Allah melindungi diriku dari perbuatan menderhaka seperti itu atau mana-mana perbuatan derhaka kepada kedua ibu bapaku. Amin"

A 57-year-old man, who had just undergone heart surgery, thought he could recuperate at home but was in for a shock when his son told him not to return home.

Harian Metro reported that Abdul Rahman Talib was abandoned by the roadside in Kangar with just a bag of clothes by his 30-year-old son after his daughter-in-law refused to let him back into the house.

"I asked my son to drive me to town although I did not know where I could go. Instead, he left me in front of a school.

"I cried as I stepped out from his car. I did not expect him to treat me like this after I've brought him up lovingly all these years," he said, adding that he felt lost wandering around before finally settling down for the night at a bus stop.

Abdul Rahman said the following day, his son had come to look for him but the old man's joy was short-lived when he realised that the son was only dropping off his bicycle.

He said he met an acquaintance near the school two days later and was invited to spend the night at his house.

It is understood that the Social Welfare Department had since sent Abdul Rahman to the Batu Bertangkap Welfare Home in Beseri.
