WHERE DO CHILDREN GO

Children are always the most vulnerable in every catastrophic man made or natural disasters. They often fall in dark pits of despair especially during moments of uncertaninty. Many a time people think that children do not recognise their predicament but the truth of the matter is that children do realise their desperation though depending on their level of maturity. Nevertheless, as they grow older it becomes clearer in their minds that their experience is not normal. This can then manifest in a behaviour unfavourable to the society.
Natural disasters have been devastating to many parts of the world. The Tsunami of the Philippines in a couple of years, then the recent one in Japan which has swept the whole of the lanscape. How about the Christ Church earth quake, last year it was Haiti. What of the mud slides! The forest fires of Australia, New Zealand and Greece. In the midst of these disasters children are part of the affected population yet they are totally dependant o the mature and grown ups.
Man made catastrophies include the current wars in Africa; Libya, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Egypt. The Asian and Eastern world includes Yemen, Gaza, Afghanstan, Pakistan and others. It is common in some of these disasters that children are actually involuntarily used as shield or soldiers.
Think child labour (21st century slavery) is rife in some parts of the world. Children are desperately in need of a "saviour" who has a heart for life in a young mind and body. Where do they go in the midst of such disasters some that are natural and still many are man made.
Children, innocent as they are find themselves stuck and stranded in the hands of the a brutal world without mercy but selfish to satisfy its ego. Listen, children are and will remain at the heart of the family network service. It is a concern for the network that everyone great and small should support and endevour to save our future in the young minds.
