This African proverb means that a child who feels neglected or rejected by their community will lash out with destructive behavior to gain attention, even if that attention is negative. It highlights how a lack of inclusion and validation can lead to resentment and harm, as the individual may act out to feel the "warmth" of the community they were denied. The saying is a warning about the importance of community support and the potential for negative outcomes when that support is absent.

• Neglect leads to destructive behavior:
  A child who feels unseen or unloved by their community might resort to harmful actions to get a reaction, as any form of attention is better than none.
  

• A cry for attention:
  The "burning" is a metaphor for lashing out, causing a scene, or engaging in other attention-seeking behaviors to force the community to acknowledge them.
  

• Exclusion has consequences:
  The proverb serves as a warning that if a community fails to embrace and support its members, it risks suffering the consequences of their pain and anger later on.
  

• Applies to individuals and society:
  This concept can be seen in various contexts, from individuals who act out due to a lack of social connection to larger-scale social and political unrest stemming from an ignored or excluded population.
