A video has surfaced on social media in which small school children, barely two or three years old, are pleading to go home. This has sparked anger over the pressure being put on children in the name of primary education. In the video, two children stand behind the classroom window, their tiny fingers clinging to the iron bars, and tears streaming down their cheeks. One child says softly in a heart-touching voice, “Call my mommy… my mommy’s name is Momma,” while the other child cries quietly, with both hope and fear in his eyes. The video, which has gone viral across platforms, shows a group of children asking their teacher to let them go home so they can “lie in their mother’s lap and drink milk.” Their voices are full of innocence, and their faces show helplessness.
Childhood cuteness overloaded!
Kids in school are requesting their teacher ma’am to let them go home as they want to lie in their mother’s lap and have milk.
Sending 2–3 year-old kids to school in the name of LKG is not education.
This is the theft of childhood innocence.💔 pic.twitter.com/3jnLGHeXxo

This viral video has sparked a debate on whether two- or three-year-old children should be put in a structured school environment like LKG and also highlights the importance of childhood, which is precious. The innocence, comfort and emotional security that young children need, especially the warmth of a mother’s embrace, should be at the center of decisions made in these early years.
