The Instagram page of comedian Avi Nussbaum has long since changed its appearance and become serious. Yesterday (Tuesday), he shared an emotional story that happened to him with his young son at the Gymboree, which brought him to tears.

"In the afternoon, I took my child to the Gymboree. Among all the exhausted parents (Sinwar will pay for each remote learning day), there were also a few families who came from the south. It's nice to see them smiling and relaxed," Nussbaum wrote. "My child and one of the kids quickly connected as children do and started playing together in the foam block pool. 'Help! I'm stuck!' my child shouted in laughter as he hid under the pile of blocks."

Nussbaum recounts that the second child stopped the game, looked at his son, and said, "Don't worry; they'll come to rescue you soon." "I froze," he shares. "It could be, of course, that it's just something he said as part of the game, and it's me who interprets it differently. That's even reasonable. But it could also not be."

The comedian shares that on the way home, he had tears in his eyes. He says, "I couldn't stop thinking about when the day will come that only the first option will be reasonable for children in this country. They deserve it."
