Policeman Answers Call from Crying Kid Who Says His Mother Is Gone — Story of the Day

A police dispatch officer answered a call only to hear a kid crying because his mother left for heaven. His response went a long way in helping the boy feel better.

“Samuel, come here,” Sam’s father called to him one day. He answered hesitantly, not because he was afraid he would get hit, but because he felt the seriousness in the air.

Sam had always been empathetic and what he felt coming from his father was a sad emotion he did not want to get close to. His dad also never used his full name unless he was in trouble, but he knew he had done nothing wrong that day

Yes father,” Sam said when he finally joined his father on the living room couch.
