I want to make a thread dedicated to those people who is victims in this sometimes cruel world.
Children all over the world who is abandoned and lives a life with not much love.
Children who prostitutes themselfs, steals and begs to manage to survive.
Children who use drugs to forget about their misery life.
I think its important that we keep those in mind because its important to help them!
Here is one of the many organizations that manage to reach out to those children. I have joined it and its warms my heart to know that not much money manages to provide home and a family to the one child I support.

Here are some information of how a life of a child living on the streets can be:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_children :
Most of Brazil's street children expect to be killed before they are 18.
Estimates on the numbers of Brazilian street children vary from 200,000 to 8 million.
In one recent survey in Sao Paulo 609 children were found to be sleeping on the streets. At least 50 were under 12 and unaccompanied by adult relations.
http://hrw.org/children/street.htm :
Few advocates speak up for these children, and few street children have family members or concerned individuals willing and able to intervene on their behalf.

I also think more people should consider to adopt a child. Because there are so few who does and so many children left on the streets. There are estimated numbers that there are 250 million homeless children today.
