CITY OF GOD!!!

Children made to be men.....carrying weapons to disarm their enemies and to eliminate any threat that comes their way. One of them says 'i smoke weed, i take cocaine and ive killed so what stops me from being a man'.Sad right!!! :(This story was what happened in the city of rio de janeiro, in brazil like 10-15 years ago.There's one thing that hurts me when ever i see it. Children who are made to hustle either due to the laziness of their parents, due to no fault of theirs in situations where the parents are sick and immobile or worse stiil when their parents die.This lead to all sort of vices being exposed to this children in form of alcohol, drugs. Then introduction to robbery, prostitution, terrorism and different means to survive.As a community, what can be done to combat this menace. Help a child. It might be in the smallest of things. Many of us can afford to send a child to a public school at least or give them just enough to feed in a week.You don't need to be bill gates or aliko dangote to help out.That child you neglect might be the one to point a gun at you and *boom*............This thought was rekindled when i watched the movie 'CITY OF GOD'. Its a must watch for everyone. I didn't want the movie to end because i was enjoying every bit of it.I hope you enjoy it.
