As parents, there are many things we must take into account to safeguard the physical and emotional integrity of our children. Even if they are in the privacy of their own rooms, we cannot be careless. Even in a place we consider safe, danger can lurk in ways we cannot even imagine.
This is the unfortunate experience of parents who lost their daughter unexpectedly. Who would have thought that a 14-year-old could d:ie in the tranquility of her room, where there is supposedly no da:nger? Well, that’s how it is; danger is everywhere.
Smartphones, although part of our daily lives and very helpful, can become an imminent danger in many ways. One of them is that we must not forget that they are electrical devices and that we should never use them while they are connected to electricity.
It all happened on what seemed like a peaceful morning when a mother was preparing to call her teenage daughter to send her to school.
After calling her several times without getting an answer, she went to her daughter’s room. When she moved her, she felt her body was cold and she was unresponsive. She panicked and, along with her husband, took her daughter to the nearest hospital.
Once there, the doctors declared her dead. An autopsy was immediately performed to determine the cause of the young girl’s death. They were completely shocked to discover that it was due to electric shock. But they couldn’t understand how this could have happened.
They went with the authorities to inspect the place where the parents had found their daughter. When they lifted the sheets, they saw a completely burned phone charger that was still connected to the power supply. They also discovered that it was broken and that the shock that killed the girl had occurred there.
