Why The Taliban Are So Heartless That They Take Away Orphans
At first, I was shocked that this director of the orphanage was selling his children, but then, I realized that he had to. He needs the money for food and water for the children, and he and all the children could be severely punished if he disobeyed a Talib. I wish there was a better way for these children. Maybe they should be moved to a safer place with less poverty. I still cannot believe that the Taliban are so heartless that they take away orphans. (82 words)

    By the time the “Lost Boys” had fled over a thousand miles to Ethiopia, their numbers had been reduced to nearly 27,000 boys due to the extreme conditions of their traveling. With little food and even less water, their trek to escape the Sudanese crisis alive seemed hopeless. The camp in Ethiopia provided food, shelter, and security for the boys in Ethiopia for nearly 3 years. In this time, the boys began to form new bonds that would help them survive…

    Malala Yousafzai, an activist of education rights, survived a gunshot to the head at the young age of 14. She helped her dad build a school in Pakistan where everyone could go to school, no matter what, she made lots of speeches and kept fighting for education rights. A group centralized in Pakistan, called the Taliban, shot her in the head while she was on her way home from school because they didn’t want education rights for all; considering they feel females are lesser than men. Malala was immediately rushed to a hospital, and thankfully, survived. If she wouldn’t have survived, she wouldn’t be as great a world leader, and no one would work hard to gain education rights. Her story greatly illustrates all of the traits people need to survive…

    Random Lunacy Video Review

    This video affects me more with emotional things than anything I think. As I started to watch the video I was trying to figure out what the parents were thinking by placing those children in those situations. This issue is a very important issue and I don’t think that it gets near the attention that it deserves. There is so much attention placed on so many things in this world but yet the situation of children and their parents who are living on the street get swept under the rug. The laws and legal systems don’t seem to do anything about but want to complain about the crimes and how wild these teenagers end up being. The legal systems don’t seem to realize how living homeless and moving place to place actually affects the parents and the children. It is a parents right to raise their children how they want but at the same time there should be limitations on these thing to ensure children basic needs are met to a certain extent. However the parents have a choice to live like that but the children they bring into this world don’t have a choice and they suffer the consequences of being homeless just because they were born and their parent made a choice to live like this because they don’t want to pay rent or taxes and this is totally unacceptable. In the minds of the parents of these children they are wanting to raise their children a certain way and that is understandable but at the same time the parents do not realize the psychological problems that it can have on the children. The parents of these children were being careless as early as when they got pregnant with the children. By living a life like this there is no prenatal care to make sure mom and baby are healthy. By living homeless the parents are exposing the unborn baby along with the children that have already been born to so many diseases among other things not to mention once a baby is born there are no doctor visits for vaccines or to check to see if the baby is on…

    Raising children in this country is extremely harsh, many children are introduced to abuse, violence, neglect and exporiation. During the years of war, hundreds of children have been used as suicide bombers and are daily put in harms way. According to Swanson (Swanson & Swanson,2011) “Conflict and political violence force millions of children and their families to flee their homes and as a result displaced families spend years in situations of uncertaniity and insecurity.”…

    There are so many children that are being forced and used to work in such poor conditions. I feel this is ethically wrong to basically use children in this fashion in order to mass produce a product. It exploit children in one of the worse kind of ways almost like imprisoning them for pennies and some are actually taken away from their families and imprisoned. Ethically it is wrong because these children are being used in order for big corporation to mass produce a product to be sold in the US for big dollars. There is big cooperation whose only focus is to make money and more money regardless of the harm they are doing to people who live in these Third World Countries. Their justification is that they are bringing economic value to their communities and offering programs that normally wouldn’t be offered, such as poor health care, below average schools and lastly some economic value to the community.…

    From the day I returned home to America, I had made it my goal to start a non-profit organization to help these children, the children of Libya, my brothers and sisters. The first step that needs to be taken is: awareness. I continually encourage my parents to help put together informative gatherings, where we educate and inform Libyan-Americans about the effects child mistreatment can have on the youth. We also plan on creating videos to raise awareness of international child abuse. In addition, whenever a family-friend is over, and they happen to mistreat their child, my mother and I intervene and are more conscientious, trying to talk sense into the parents. My father and I have been taking road trips to Libyan-gatherings all across California, and collaborate with presenters who speak freely of their experiences dealing with child abuse and the effects it has had upon their lives. My next move is, to study corporate management to fulfil my ideals for this new movement against the child mistreatment in Libya. The following steps to come are still in the process of being worked out, but I’d eventually like to open non-profit parent-teacher workshops all across Libya. It is my goal to change the customary Libyan lifestyle of raising juveniles. I hope…

    The commanders give these children what they need to survive. These bad military soldiers give these poor innocent children shelter, food, love and attention. Providing all their needs, builds trust and respect for the commanders. Because all their needs are met, it makes it easy for the commanders to manipulate these children. Since they have been manipulated and tricked by the commanders it’s not on them.…

    Lost Boys Of Sudan Essay

    • 692 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The lost boys of Sudan is the name given to a massive group of boys who walked ~1000 miles after being displaced by the Sudan civil war. It was nevertheless a horrible and inhumane event which leads to my belief that the lost children should have been brought to America for refuge. I believe in this because they live in an incredibly cruel/inhumane situation, there’s no real reason why they shouldn’t have been brought here, Along with the fact that the Bush administration already has a law about allowing children into the country to avoid sex traffickers so a law for children in other hostile situations could have been included as well. The children should have been moved to a place where they’ll be safe and have the ability to lead a better life than in their home country.…

    Children of Gaza

    The war at Gaza affected so many innocent lives, including the children and also the pregnant women. After watching the interview I felt really sad for the children who got killed and also for those who got injured/wounded. Knowing that there were hundreds of children that died in Gaza, hurts me so much.There were over a thousand children living there before, but now it's only down to less than 350 children. The people in Gaza cannot take refuge in other countries, they are just stuck in their own country where death is almost a part of their everyday lives. Pregnant women couldn't even get the medical attention they really need. The hospitals are always full of injured people and sometimes they are lacking the room for pregnant women who needs to give birth. Another issue is that the power outtage happens often, the babies who are supported by machines are also in great danger. The children, pregnant women, and the babies are all affected by the war. The children shouldn't be affected by this, they can't even play, watch the television or even get a decent education. They don't have anything to do than to hide from all the danger that the outside world brings. The sad thing about this is that almost everybody will have this experience with them throughout their entire lives, they will have to live with it. I hope that the people in Gaza, and especially the children, can get through this and I hope they can recover. My prayers are always with…
