In
a country like Uganda, it was indicated in the 2002 National Census that 54% are
children under the age of 14 out of the general population which is 24.6. The
majority of the 54% are children from poor families who can©öt afford to go to
school. It is estimated that 2 million children have been orphaned as a result
of their parents being killed by AIDS. 10% out of the general population is HIV
positive and AIDS is the main cause of death among adults aged between 25 - 45
years. Some children when both their parents die, they are taken to grand parents who are already helpless and as a result these lovely children end up on streets eating from dustbins, suffering from sexual abuse, child labor, early marriages, etc. The situation makes one shed tears. |
