In our lives,there are many bad things like poverty, illiteracy, and exploitation that make children suffer and degrade their moral natural.
Miserable children are obliged to work in bad conditions in an early age doing cruel tasks, some of their employers make them steal, cheat, and so on. Some of them have to steal or cheat in order to provide for their families. So some of them turn to these ways. And so they run away from school, because they lack money to pay for their education and because they need that money for their families.
These children face hunger, they have to eat unhealthy food, drink polluted water. It might make them suffer from diseases like HIV or cancer.
Children are deprived of the simple joy and the simple happy childhood. I think these children have the right to lead a good life without fear and without diseases.
They feel obliged to provide for their families, when they should be provided for. They take responsibility from their early age and so their lives become very hard.
I feel very sad when I see these children or hear about their stories, and I believe that we should do whatever we can to help them.

A wake up call to an age old lesson for humanity i.e., let us get our act together. A very relevant topic and thank you for putting it out for the world to read, its very very well expressed.
yes, it is sad indeed, but the thing is: is it very sad to do something about it? or is it just sad? and next day we'll see something horrible also! a provoking article Hassan, well done ;)
