Growth experience

From Kompas

My son and his friends were riding motorbikes at about 10 p.m. on July 31 in the Jabong area, Mekar-Parung, Bogor when they were knocked down by a passing Kijang car.

Two of the motorbikes went down at that time and three of the riders are still in the hospital. The other went home after receiving medical treatment.

We can only appeal to the driver to visit these people in the hospital before we resort to searching for him ourselves.

We the parents, together with my son, have decided against asking for compensation from the driver. We only seek that the driver reflect on his or her crime and become a more responsible human being.
