A Child from Wuhan: 'We don't have money."

With this statement, I felt bad that even an 8-year-old child can feel the impact of this coronavirus. I tried to divert his attention because it is not allowed to say things about this concern. It's the company's policy. As I had mentioned before, I lost my freedom to say things during my classes online.
'Would you feel sad if hearing this from a child?'
'Are your kids in the house say things about the situation right now?'

I don´t have kids in my house. But although my grandchildren know about the virus, they are well fed.

I think lots of adults in China have money problems. They might not be able to work due to the virus situation. It is sad the 8 year old child is worried about having no money. Money is necessary to buy groceries and pay rent or a mortgage.

I agree. Since it was the main city that was affected much, I am not also sure if they are still in lockdown. In fact, this kid is randomly sending this message to the chatbox. I had to use a translation to check his message because he cannot speak that much in English. Once I had checked it, I cannot react appropriately because it is prohibited to say something about it.
