Among the participants were parents and young children. Eva, who lives in Lam Tin, and her husband took a 5-year-old daughter to participate in the parade. She said that during the "three strikes" on November 11, tear gas was used near the residence. As she had eczema herself, a large area of eczema grew on her back the next day. "I haven't seen severe rash for 4 years." As for her daughter, she also had an intestine that night.
Tear gas bombs leave children nowhere to go
She said that tear gas has been used in the area several times. Because the road section involved is a must for her daughter to go to school, she is worried that it will affect her daughter's health. She also said that because tear gas has been used in many areas in Hong Kong, she confessed that she did not know where she could "discharge" with her daughter. During holidays, she could only go to indoor places such as shopping malls. She accused the police of casting tear gas in large quantities, arguing that the practice was unnecessary and would affect the health of children and the elderly. She also criticized the government for refusing to disclose the composition of the tear gas, "I don't understand how it can affect deployment."

During the rally, a teacher from the middle school music department spoke. Miss Wong said that during the week of the "three strikes", the police had fired tear gas four times near the school. She said that the school only arranged for the school staff to clean up the campus after class resumption. She felt symptoms such as dry mouth and coughing inside the school. She hoped that the government would stop the use of tear gas, "I finished my hoe and cleared my head, and I worked hard." At the same time, she asked the government to publish the composition of the tear gas as soon as possible and issue guidelines for cleaning the areas affected by the tear gas.

The promoter of the event, Jiang Chengchang, said that he lived in Sheung Shui District and had a sore throat for nearly a week after the "three strikes" in mid-November. His 8-year-old son also had shortness of breath and headaches. Nose tingling in the road. He described Hong Kong as a gas chamber. As parents worry about the impact on their children, they do not know the composition of the tear gas. The Hong Kong government "returns peace to Hong Kong people." He also stated that the use of small yellow balloons in the procession meant that Hong Kong people would bring demands into the community, and will continue to work with government departments in the future to follow up on the impact of tear gas on the community. He also pointed out that the government has not announced the composition of the tear gas, and the intensive application of tear gas in Hong Kong in the past few months requires accurate evidence and understanding of the impact of the tear gas in order to help the government.
He was also dissatisfied with Luo Zhiguang's earlier statement that social workers had no “privileges” to mediate at the scene of the conflict, because as a social worker, as long as young people sought assistance, the social worker needed to help them.
