Inspiring? Yes, Amar is a strong and courageous, but he is a boy! It is very sad to see him burdened with the responsibility of providing for his family at such a young age. Where's the father in all this? What is he doing to care for his family? -

Makes me more firm in my thoughts as Life is all about the mind. You can make anything you wish to,.. Including time.. Specially when survival is question .. then everything else takes a second place.. Lot to learn from his determination and commitment. -

Indian law forbids employment for persons below 18yrs, making a lot of people in this video criminals. We need to change laws to cope with ground realities, allow life-skills education, while also safeguarding childhood. -

This young man is truly inspiring. If not for him, what would become of his family? My question is this: why are his parents not working? Why should a 14 year old boy be the sole supporter of the family? I feel really sorry for him, even though he seems not to feel sorry for himself. -

Amar is a very remarkable boy. He reminds me that I delivered the Duluth News Tribune every morning at 6 AM when I was 14 years old; But that was my limit, school was all that I could further accomplish. -

This dedication to managing so many responsibilities is touching and an inspiration. We in the west (for the most part) have life so easy. -

Watching Amar focusing on his various responsibilities reminded me of the saying, "where there's a will, there's a way." Amar is showing up each day with his "will power". -
