 Definitions of an Invisible Street Child

_Compassion 4 Kids International Reaching Out to Invisible Street Children Since October 2005

There are two types of Street Children. One are the ones that are sent out by parents and they go home at night. Those we seek to rescue are the invisible street children that have no parents or responsible adult to show them any type of love level, they are in the care of evil people who enslave them.

A typical street child.

Picture
1.  A street  child that is sent by a parent or supervising adult to the street to beg for money and food to supplement family income. If they do not obtain enough money, they are severely punished. This punishment is escalates as the child gets older and physical abuse is administered and some of that to the point the child leaves the home.
                         

An invisible street child.

2.   A street child that has been severely abused, leave or are asked to leave the home and not come back, or orphaned (see more below)  and no responsible adult wants to take the this child into their home whether friend, family, or relative. They then become an invisible street child. Usually they are found by an evil person and enslaved into working for very, very little to nothing for their labor.                        


Life of Hopelessness

3.  An invisible street child lives a life of hopelessness without hope for tomorrow bringing anything better as it will be as bad or worse. The only way out is dieing ...... except if we can find them we have a chance to rescue and save them with your support These enslaved children usually only receive one meal of cheap rice per day.

The number of children meeting definition  #2 is estimated to be 15 to 20 million in India. They live and sleep on the streets. The Indian government does have a very small program that provides for a very limited amount of children in a few of their orphanages that are brought to them.

The invisible Street Child have no social status in either country. There is no Human Services department within the government to fund, help, or provide guidance for these children.

For most of the alliances (gangs) survive with other alliances by testing their ability to beg or steal in another gang's alliance area. If it works they capitalize on their infringement of that part of the city until fighting starts and the loser leaves.
                     

Slum Children

4.  Slum Children:  The slums are areas of the city marked as being the lowest of poverty and having inferior living conditions. Most children in slum areas live without being able to have security or stability. These homes are usually are almost always built illegally. From time to time the government wants to rehabilitate the area and move them to far away remote areas. Then they demolish the so called buildings for rehabilitating the area. They are removed to place that sever them from all other social cast levels with no educational means for anyone.

At this time we do not have a program for slum children as we do not subsidize families. But we do go into their slums to seek out invisible Street Children.


5.  Orphans / Abandoned Children

Picture
Orphaned children, being they have no parents, have a very hard time being accepted into homes of relatives or family friends. These orphaned children become orphaned because of death, or the parents just disappear (just abandon) them. Some are thrown out because of a disability and cannot help the family earn additional income by begging.



6.  Sexual Abuse

Picture
Girls, 8 to 10 years old are prime targets for evil adults that are looking for new girls to indoctrinate them into prostitution. These girls are threatened with death if they do not abide by “the rules”. Even vacationing men can get one, two, or three girls for $15 to do whatever they ask.

A boy from age 8 to 10 years old on the streets must always know of their surroundings for pedophiles search them out, give them attention and care for them a few days and then begin to rape them, ruining them for life. Too high of  a percentage are murdered when the child is a year or too older and fight back and the pedophile is done with them.

7.   Physical Abuse

Picture
In the home, children are abused for many reasons of which one is that they do not earn enough money by begging. They are given an amount to earn and a time limit (maybe per month) to earn from $0.50 to $1.00 or more.

If they do not obtain that goal, they are punished in one of many different ways. Some are by a belt, stick of wood, hanging upside down from the ceiling rafters, being hit with a fist, cut all their hair off, and/or by severe verbal abuse. Some are punished by cutting off all their hair or scared with a hot charcoal stick. At some point the child will leave, not to return or be asked to leave.


Different Degrees Of Abuse

Picture
Finding Food
_ Sexual, emotional, and physical abuse is done in different degrees. At first the child learns to hide the outward seen symptoms but at sometime it is time for them to leave and this can be from age 5 and up. The scars are for life unless some one like us, which there are very few, can find them and take them into our care with respect, honor and the most important part, love.

No child should be a street child. A child should have the life of a child. Within a few months after becoming one they are found by an evil person and they become a hard core Invisible Street Child Read the Statistics about them and find the very, very sad realm of their hopelessness for there are very few wanting concerned adults to look, find, and help them.
