Children are hungry too!

      The problem of childhood hunger is not simply a moral issue. Child hunger lowers a young person's ability to learn and becomes more likely to suffer from poverty as an adult. Scientific evidence suggests that hungry children are less likely to become productive citizens. Children have no right to wake up in the morning thinking what can I find to eat today. It's even tougher on the parents because they feel weak. They feel like their bad parents and they feel like they should give their children up to a family that can provide for their children. Children count just as much as adults do so lets not forget about them.

  1. For some reason, this reminds me of an organization I am very much interested in: The Prevention of Child Trafficking. Your article ties in greatly with this, because most of these children end up starving to death, because their captors have abandoned them somewhere.
