Such a good point Cat; and look what we find in darkest India; dozens of kids who will grow up admiring and emulating a terrific teenager - male - who has avoided the perils of political correctness and paedo scares and is the perfect male role model.
Despite the poverty and lack of any decent facilities, what do you bet there are more future good people going to emerge from Murshidabad than from most inner London areas?

In the UK he'd be told he was too young and made to have a CRB check before having all his details added to a database for future scrutiny.
I hope he gets the help, support and encouragement in his own county which he would be denied here. |

Who teaches younger kids after he leaves school.
If you want to send anonymous donations to a deserving charity, that's the one.
Uplifting, wonderful story.
Well done BBC. |
