Children’s day To select a day at random and call it ‘Children’s Day’ is mankind’s datelined hypocrisy. Every day in man’s life is authenticated by bubbling joy of children and the scream of infants in overcrowded maternity wards. National statistics reveal the mockery of an aging population in Sri Lanka as retribution for the injustice meted out to children. Yet the Book of Proverbs (17: 6) says this about children: "Children’s children are a crown to the aged and parents are the pride of their children". |
