Hanging out with school kids

Next time you think you have it bad … think of these children.  Young boys and girls are expected to help their families, that often means physical work/labor.

What is your definition of poor? Does it involve not having things you want? Or does it mean not having basic needs?  Within some of these communities they lack basic needs like water, electricity and bathroom facilities.  The children lack schools, shoes and healthcare … just look at some of the following.
