Mothers please don't just leave your babies alone, what is wrong with you? Some mothers are not suppose to have kids, they must go sterilize.

My Man, you are my hero on this important day of Madiba.

Good job I wish you get blessing from god you save somebody's live I wish the girl's family to document the day where their daughter was between life and death. Fortunate god gives her another chance to live. I wish the girl live life as good example for everybody who is living in this world.

A video of the incident taken on a mobile phone and broadcast by the channel showed the girl standing on an air conditioning unit outside her apartment window more than 30 feet (10 meters) from the ground.
**********************************************************************************************
How did she climb out the window??? Is it low????

Eish kids sometimes can put you in trouble........ split second there is hell to pay.

If the mother left her alone at hoem, she deserves to be punished even if it means taking the child aways.

MommaC- My mother used to say if you dont have anything good to say about anyone, say nothing.
7 year olds do not rationalise danger like 15 year olds. The parents should have been supervising the child at all times. Social services need to get involved on this one. Big up to the driver, I wish this was happening all the time in SA, instead of reading about rapes of 4 year old children, NX!!
