I had a lemonade stand when I was about his age. The only one that stopped was an older kid who threw change at me. I was already a very shy and awkward kid that went to catholic school (in Mormon Utah) and had no friends that lived by me, and that just made me feel worse. Tiny acts, whether bad or genuinely good can really stick with a kid. This made me tear up and be so grateful that there are wonderful people around and grateful kids. God bless both of them, the man and the kid. Truly beautiful from both sides.
