How do Ethiopians celebrate a child's 1st birthday? They leave flowers on its grave.
What do you mean by leaving flowers on their graves?
It's for people to know that there is a high child mortality rate in Ethiopia. Because the country has a lot of starving children who are dying of hunger and child deaths.
Even if what you're saying is true, you shouldn't make light of children dying like that. You come off as showing lack of empathy for such events and may cause people to look down on you.
