This garbage man didn't fully understand what this kid wanted from him.

So how can this kid trust adults now? The child was simply waiting for the garbage men on the street with a basket to help his parents throw out the trash. Two huge men drive up in a huge car and throw out the trash from the bins and his only small trash bin. The kid was simply stunned by what was happening, his bewilderment is visible even at such a distance. Well, here, probably, everyone would be confused, not just a child.
