In the quiet commune of Nersac, France, a heartbreaking case of neglect has emerged. A nine-year-old boy reportedly lived alone for two years, surviving with almost no parental care — all while attending school and keeping good grades. Left largely to fend for himself, he ate cold canned food and scraps from a neighbor’s balcony. Though his mother lived nearby, her visits were rare and provided little support. Despite this, the boy maintained cleanliness and strong academic performance, which tragically masked his suffering. Teachers, neighbors, and administrators assumed his life was normal.
