problems, such as cholera and anemia. The kids are exposed to toxic substances in the environment around them and also in their food. Then the UNICEF is working with some groups to help the street children such as Caritas. These groups try to educate and empower the boys and the girls of the streets. They provide centers to do such things and the UNICEF supports by training the workers and the children themselves. The article also mentioned the launch of the National Strategy for the Protection and Rehabilitation of Street Children, which is supposed to give the street children better lives and to ensure them access to the things they are deprived from. But honestly, do any of us see that as efficient as it should be? No since the number of street children is rising not decreasing. Fourth source I found was http://www.nccm-egypt.org/e7/index_eng.html . It’s the official cite of the National Council of childhood and motherhood. Placing the children best interest as the highest priority is the first legislative regarding the protection of the child’s right. Healthcare, social, and educational services are supposed to be provided by the Child’s law. How come there is a law concerning the child’s right and there is a huge percentage of children are living on the streets buying, begging, and committing bad habits? The only story that I know, as an answer concerning this question “Are they all come from poor families?? Or are there some other reasons for being neglected?” is that some of the street children come from well off parents. I’m going to ask about why such people just go and throw their children away while they could afford having them in their lives.
