Youth has the right to study
For children, it is a right to join a school in order to get knowledge and finally get a better job which normally gives a better life.
“None is born to be poor “but there are people that never will be rich.
What are the possible alternatives if your parents have nothing and can’t afford your schooling? And suppose that though they want you join school, they just can’t.
People from outside will criticize them and gossip that your parents are not responsible, etc.
They will say that they are wrong doing that and what they just have to do is to let them attend those classes where most of the basic means are supported by the government.
You, as being the only one knowing the real situation, will take the initiative and look for whatever job you can do to help your parents raising the daily income of the family. Having yourself fed out of the parents’ expense is a start for you.
How does that appeal to you? Is what I just wrote might be the real situation?
I don’t really know but what I have seen lately is a whole family working under the sun’s hit for plates of rice. Yep, sweat before sweet. Isn’t that the thing?

Regarding that last, I was talking to a person responsible of a “Fokontany” (an area within a district) in the southern part of Madagascar recently. That person is well known in his area and loved by most of young people in there. Himself as being the father of three children, loves gathering children from the whole village and telling them stories and tales. We both had a chat and he said to me that he has been asking the responsible from the government to build a school in there two times yet. But no good result so far. Bored, he is to give up the demand.
He then said that he drops it down though he is filling sad not being able to do something more to those children that he used to telling stories every day.
From what he is doing, he contrasted that those children have the thirst of knowledge. But as they are too much distant from the nearest school, which is at about 20 km, there is nothing more they can do than improving their knowledge right on the field and start helping their parents doing house chores.
I do believe that things can change if we guys synchronize our forces and work all together to help those children leave the box where they are nowadays.

We can start with little things like giving them few books and then work on it to have it bigger and greater. If we always wait the gov’s helps we may stay where we are for a long while but instead we can synchronize our efforts as you said and show them we’re moving.

Tahina> You are right. But do you think we can do much things without the gov’s supports? For instance, if i am about to start sharing the little things that I have (One or two books, and stuff like that.) to whom should I give them in order to give profits to the maximum of in needs.
take the initivative to go directly to the place in need, I will be into a forking road. I can’t even afford a week of my staple food if I don’t work for few days.
If I, myself, me
In any cases, I think I ( or better saying we ) better start doing little things and as time goes on I am sure we will be able to serve more and more people.
