Picture Of A Boy Giving Funeral To His Turtle Goes Viral After Adults Saw What He Did
A reddit user by the name of “conor_goggles” just shared this picture with the following caption: “My little cousin’s turtle died. He made the grave, built the cross, and got dressed without any parental supervision. My uncle caught this towards the end of the ceremony.”
The social networks exploded with comments, with some making funny remarks and saying the boy looks like a character from the Children Of The Corn, while others genuinely praising the kid’s skills and the level of independence at such a young age.
There were also those who allowed the picture to take them back to their own childhoods, and remind of the time when their first pet died. They tapped into their feelings and gave the boy some words of encouragement.
One guy wrote: “I have two young sons of my own, and I know how deeply they feel and how much they struggle to express their feelings. I think your little cousin is a fine young man with a big heart who just wants the world to acknowledge the feelings he had for his turtle. He’s a good lad. Give him a hug.”

I love how the boy showed resect to his animal friend by dressing up and preparing everything. He knows true valuable things already and I am sure he has all qualities needed to grow up to a fine man. Bravo for the parents as well for implementing excellent attitude!
What a great boy, his parents are doing a great job. I don't care who you are pets make a difference in our lives. This is a very sweet, caring boy who I'm sure will grow up to be a wonderful man.
