What is wrong with us?!

The headline Boy, 6, found walking on I-40 entrance ramp really says it all, but I have to ask, anyway: What on earth is wrong with us? The boy made it from his Cedar Bluff school all the way to the entrance ramp. It's quite possible that hundreds of people saw this tiny child walking along the extremely busy Cedar Bluff Road...crossing streets at giant intersections, even. Why would someone (and I'm not picky...just one someone) not stop and talk to this boy to find out why he was walking by himself and where he was going. Or are we so self-absorbed that we don't even notice when something like this is happening, anymore? Are we so afraid to get involved in somebody else's "business" that we don't even care about a tiny wandering child, anymore? Nevermind the neglect that happened at the school. Those problems are obvious and we can probably easily place blame, identify the problem, and suggest a solution. The greater problem seems to me that we just don't care about each other. I want to make a huge billboard (huger than normal) that says "Wake up, people! It's not okay for a tiny child to be walking along a busy road by himself, much less on an interstate entrance ramp. Stop and help him. Make him safe. Protect him."
