HELLO!
Here is a big reality check
for you guys. Did you know that of South Africa’s 45 million citizens half of
them live below the poverty line? More than one in five adults has HIV, and that
it is greatest among the poorest and when they die, their children sitt back
all alone.
Today there are over 1
million orphans in South Africa and the number is increasing. The worst part is
that there are no people or organisations that can take them in and take care
of them and love them. When poverty and bad living conditions are spread over South
Africa it makes the people living there more exposed for drugs, prostitution and abduction. The kids get
abducted to become child soldiers that get used, manipulated and brain washed
to kill people even their own parents. If you don’t know that much about child soldiers
you should watch the movie “blood diamond”. The movie is about a boy getting
abducted and the father trying to get is son back both physical and mentally. I
really recommend the movie!
The orphans that loses
their parents and don’t get mixed up with that are very ill prepared to cope on
their own. In most cases, the grandparents have to take care of these children,
grandparents who basically barely have enough to feed themselves. In other
cases the eldest child in the family has to take responsibility for her or his
younger siblings.
