Nice.

MOVEprofPHD What I love about this story is that little boy seems so well prepared for the tragedy of losing his father. Great credit to his Mother and Father. They've done so well to minimise his pain. Really beautiful.

USA and their child-king ... a whole story 🙄

Would love the contribute: what is the link to the fund?

👏🏻

Sweet talking

Wow 🙁

Government's going to shut him down unless he has his business license and health safety code paperwork in order.

Don’t celebrate this. Fix the system

Future leader !!! OUTSTANDING, God bless.

🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Anddd now I’m sobbing strangermiracle

SameOldNancy And here is this greedy family, God lost soul that could easily Donate 90 billion to people in need but instead he keeps it and braggs about! Ego worshiper, Narcissistic God lost souls🖤🖤🖤🖤💲💲💲💲💲

What a sweet little man! His dad would be proud!!

thank goodness he is not a little black child selling water

SameOldNancy I love him. Bravo to his parents for raising an angel❤️❤️❤️🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊 I know his father is watching over them and is proud of them🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️

Has just a headline ever made you cry before? Asking for a friend.

This is so heartbreaking and heart warming at the same time. I am saddened. I hope they have go fund me on his behalf. If there is one, pls share it, cause i am willing to add what i can

What an awesome little boy.

💔😢 but courageous and brave and inspiring. .. may 👼watch our them🙏.

Unfortunately he was shot six times by a first responder customer that thought he was reaching for a gun rather than his change!

I’m not crying... you’re crying! 😭

Mom will be ok for sure 👍

6 year olds absorbed into the economy to neutralize the patriarchal anxieties of his dying father. Local agents of the military industrial complex reward him with visibility for hawking the great American myth of entrepreneurship in a country that would happily watch him die

Does he have a business permit? How about a green card? 🤔

Did he have a permit😤

Communist news network sleepy

Stop doing these stories

What a touching sweet story! I admire the beautiful community spirit!

Very Brave little man!💔

We shouldn't speak bad of his dad, as he certainly didn't mean any harm & was in a difficult situation himself. But for CNN to promote this really bad example of putting such a burden on a little child is plain wrong & reckless. I expect you & your editors to act more responsible

This is the America I Love

May I please buy the lemonade online from Canada?

The comments crack me up. Guess what, it’s legal in the state of Colorado to have a lemonade stand.. there’s 35 states that make it illegal to have one. With that being said, if someone had an illegal lemonade stand, then there’s consequences.

Wow thanks capitalism for putting 6 year olds to work

Beautiful!

Sweet story and a strong kid...I mean strong young man

Baruch Dayan ha’emet

For God's sake, please get this great young man to therapy. It's his mom's job to take care of him, not the other way around. He's just a child.

Somebody should put a Lime Stand next to his.. Teach him about how America treats monopolies.

The masterpiece and perfect of God is the life. Blessings.

but does he have a permit?
