If there is one good thing about children who are raised correctly it is that if a child is taught how to use first aid by either hands on training or seeing a television show that teaches everyone how to use first aid on anyone who needs to be assisted, the lessons of using first aid techniques to save a life of another person is priceless.
Benjamin Ford who is a fifth grade student at Greenwood Elementary School in Henrico County in Virginia applied the Heimlich Maneuver on a female student who was choking on her food during lunchtime on Monday.
Benjamin credited his mother for teaching him to use first aid techniques when they watched television shows together when he was younger.
After the heroic act by Benjamin to save the life of a fellow student became news around the school campus, Benjamin was being praised for being a hero by both students and teachers at Greenwood Elementary that same day.
Benjamin’s parents are rewarding the heroic actions by taking their son to see the Marvel Studios hit movie “The Black Panther”.
Children like Benjamin make me feel good about the future of our world since Benjamin has learned to help any person who is in need when they get in trouble.
What an amazing story. Glad he was rewarded.
Me too Branka since it goes to show us that not all kids are selfish persons playing with their toys.
What an amazing story. And for a 5th grader that is impressive. Glad he was rewarded.
Benjamin was raised right by his parents to do what is right.
That is a lot of the problems these days with violence, etc. It begins at home.
You are correct Carol DM.
It’s amazing that he knew how to do that! First aid is a great thing to teach your child.
Benjamin’s mother did a super job teaching her son how to use first aid on someone who needs help.
I agree! I wouldn’t know what to do in such situation.
Benjamin admitted he was nervous when he made his move to assist his classmate when she was choking on her food.
Yeah, the story is inspiring and also an encouragement to teach first aid to young stars!
My pleasure to share this good news story that if children are taught first aid when they are young, they can assist someone who really needs their help.
This is an inspiring story and thank you for sharing it.
My pleasure to share this wonderful story on this site to all of my readers.
