True Heroism
This is in the news everywhere - Deamonte Love, a six year old boy, took care of and led six smaller children out of the chaos that is New Orleans. This brave little boy was separated from his family with six other children when the evacuation helicopter that came to help could not carry any more people and their parents decided to let the children ride to safety.
I am unsure how these brave kids left the custody of responsible adults, but they were found walking down Causeway Boulevard holding hands, with Deamonte looking out for them all.
In the middle of chaos and destruction, this young man kept his cool, made good decisions, and went amazingly far and above the call of duty for a six year old. In the middle of everything that was happening, he made sure the babies were cared for.
Would that all adults knew the sense of responsibility this boy has. Does anyone know how to set up a 503c fund to help pay for this kid to go to college? If he stepped up to the plate like this at age six, the mind boggles at what he'll be capable of when he's twenty or thirty.
A kid like this could grow up to be president.
