Tragedy strikes China again as another attack on school age children occurred on the morning of April 29th. An unemployed man stabbed 28 kindergarten children, their two teachers, and a security officer, critically injuring at least 5 children. Sadly, this is not the first time it has happened. Unfortunately, this is the second stabbing of children in two days and the third in the month. Only a day before this stabbing, another occurred where fifteen 4th and 5th graders were also stabbed, though thankfully none of them seriously hurt. The very first attack was on March 23 were eight elementary school children were killed while waiting with their parents for school to begin. All three attacks were in different areas and by different men. Authorities are claiming that each gentleman have mental illnesses, though some in the media is doubting that claim. Mental problems are still not talked about and research had to be done in England, before research found that around 91% of people suffer from mental illness but never get treatment. Others have stated that it have to do with income inequality since all the children attacked when to developed, urban, and relativity wealthy area.
