To see children care for justice then our world has hope......If they don't care then who will....I think this is absolutely wonderful and this is education responsibility since young age. Hope the older generation will move on and be replace with these children soon. I'm sure the world will be a much more just and peaceful place : ) Shame on you adults with hatred!

@rossinibkk Thank you, Rossinibkk! It's a big responsibility to cultivate a child's commitment to justice. I think it's instinctual to want justice, but it's society's (and a family's) responsibility to reinforce and develop that instinct, so that it develops into something strong and beautiful.

The little girl is quite mature and wise for her age.

@Mahdavi1990 Thank you, that's very kind! She has always loved going to school and therefore I think she sympathizes with children who run into opposition doing something so basic.

Regardless of whether the children are Baha'i's or not, doesn't every child deserve to have a proper education?

[neolefty]

Yes, a thousand times, yes!

Wow! These children are amazing! <3 Keep up the good work!

@AMIRsarkari You are an idiot if you truly believe that. I know why your crackpot mullah regime doesn't like Baha'is, they feel threatened since the Baha'i Faith doesn't have clergy! Also, it has about as much to do with zionism as a fork does with soup.

"O Son of Spirit! The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice. Turn not away therefrom if thou desirest Me, and neglect it not that I may confide in thee. By its aid thou shalt see with thine own eyes and not the eyes of others, and shalt know of thine own knowledge and not the knowledge of thy neighbor. Ponder this in thy hear, how it behooveth thee to be. Verily justice is My gift to thee, and the sign of My loving kindness. Set it then before thine eyes." from Baha'u'llah

Bahais are the most peaceful people on earth. They respect all other religions and do no harm to any people. Yet, they get persecuted in Islamic countries like Egypt and Iran by the followers of so-called "Religion of Peace"!!!

To all my Bahai brothers and sisters, the entire world is with you.

Children raised in Bahai households in America and Canada are under tremendous burdens, especially with America's failing economy. Any organized religion is going to have wealthy ambitious people exploiting desperate people and subjecting their children to abuse. You Bahais in America have no proof of being anything better than modern christians or muslims, especially with your insane parental consent laws.
