    It's so sad to see all those kids but it's good to see that they're coming together and they have hope. I like the picture with the road through it.

    I think that we take so much for granted and the people that have barely anything are like: OOOHHHHH A PIECE OF BREAD!!!! and we are like.. : wahoo... bread... :|

    These pictures made me hopeful. Generous souls are helping these people, and perhaps their lives can be better because of their support (:

    I like the photoset called listening. I think that to truly understand and educate ourselves about poverty, we have to first listen to the needs of those who are living with it. Very interesting picture.

    These are the stories of many children and tennagers tat are facing poverty. One of the articles I find really disturbing is the one about white Guinea Worms, which grow in the body after drinking contaminated water and eventually burst throught the skin, to be pulled out by hand. These parasites can grow to be meters in length.

    It's sad to see these stories about children growing up in poverty. I was reading one about a girl named Yuleini and it said while her mother and stepfather were at work, she had to cook meals for her 4 siblings, wash their clothes, and play with them. She is taking on a lot of responsiblity and she will grow up to be a good mother to her children.

    Those worms are disgusting. ;_; It's amazing what these people have to go through.

    I can't beleive that people actualy have to go through that. Sometimes i just live in my own little world, and am oblivous to things around me. I notice the weird things, like how there is a gree bug in the snow, but i don't notice the walls, or the poverty going on around me. It's just unreal that things like worms can actually live in your body.

    the stories are so touching! I love Himal's story, just because it was so intense

    It's so sad to see what people have to go through, and it's great that these organizations are providing them education.

    I think that is was so sad when the kids were talking about their dreams one day of going to college and pulling themselves out of poverty. Hopefully one day the United States and even us can help them to achieve their goals and dreams.

    It is sad that parents don't know how to deal with their children being in poverty. This shows how they can be more supportive of them and help with their growing.

    Poverty is sad, 600 million children are living in extreme poverty. 75 million children are out of school. It's horrible because they don't even get a chance for a good life without school.

    i think one of the saddest thing is that kidsw are dying from curable diseases. that means that we arent doing enough to make sure that everyone gets the treatment they deserve.
  • Chesser G on 13 Jan 11
     
    That's sad to see that approx. 25,000 children die each day to something that can be prevented. I wonder what the U.N. is doing to prevent that
  • Althauser M on 13 Jan 11
     
    I didn't know that, approximately 9.2 million children under the age of 5 die each year, mostly from preventable diseases.

    It's so sad to see that so every day and every minute a kid dies because of poverty i wonder if anyone is trying to do anything to help if not why don't they start
