THEY even share one blanket with others kids too. Unfortunately, those blanket are stolen when they go out..
They build fires with newspaper, woods and sometimes with plastic and pieces of clothes.
They even take drugs to keep themselves warm. These children end up living and working on the streets for a plethora of reasons…
