The mother begged South Africans to pray for her situation:

“I was called to school today because of my son. He has bedbugs cutting all of his school uniforms now. Again, it’s his school pants and these shoes. I’m even scared of buying the new ones; please pray for him.”

Social media users were amused by the incident and shared their thoughts in the comments:

@MazukiDyantyi3 commented:

“This child is creative; he'll do great things; his mind is occupied with creativity; don't scold him. Talk nicely and buy him material he can use for his talent.”

@nesdav said:

“Where are you staying? I make shoes from scratch, so let him join me for a few weekends; he's good.”

@Jobelish advised:

“Collect old shoes for him to create and express whatever talent is there, but also have a conversation about the new shoes you will buy and have him understand that he can’t do that because of rules.”
