Now go back to the mother who did the only thing she knew to do, She feels that the police officers are guides and friends and they are to be turned to in any emergency which pertains to their work but people are telling her that she made a mistake. She is being told that she will make herself unpopular, that she should have taken it from her children and gotten rid of it and said nothing. There are some who tell her that she did the good thing, the She could see them swinging 5 | followed by prayer.
