Problems Of Children Are Terrible
Today's children are face to face with various problems like malnutrition, poverty, child labour and homelessness etc their life is not a story of joys but it has become a long saga of sorrows they live in poverty and work in shops, dhabas etc. Many children can be seen picking rag from the dirty places. They don't get good food to eat and clean clothes to wear.

Children nowadays face more than children ever did 20-50 yrs ago. Parents are becoming more and more irresponsible. They have no morals when it comes to raising children properly. Drug addicts are having children, poor people on welfare keep having children and I don't think this is a fair way to raise a child. If you have those issues, you should not be allowed to bring a child into this world. There are enough children left behind by parents that die in accidents and natural causes. We don't need the drug addicts and poor contributing to the ratios. There should be a law passed stating the circumstances that a child can be born in. If you don't jmeet the criteria, than you cannot have a child.

I agree. I taught school for a long time and it was hard to teach kids because of the problems that they face today. Many of students did face poverty, homelessness, drug addicted or neglectant parents, teen pregnancies, and more. Today's problems are massive. They are real problems that were really only experienced by adults in the past. Kids today are forced to deal big problems at a young age and as a result, they lose their childhood and they are not able to concentrate in school or participate in social groups or sports. The problem will only get worst before it gets better. Adults need to realize these problems and do something to try to help these kids.
