"Childhood is the best part of a person's life", I agree to this statement and I think you too agree to it. But due to poverty, discrimination and miserable condition many children in our country have a childhood that they would prefer to forget than to remember it at any point in their lives. Due to poverty many children between the ages of 5 and 14 years work as laborious and domestic helper in tea farms, factories etc. Another reason is the armed rebellion raging in our country for the last 10 years. The armed conflict has caused large scale displacement of children from their villages. And many children who fled their village due to lack of security end up in cities under exploitive conditions. In our country, Nepal move the 14% of children of primary school age are deprived of education and their rights
Just imagine that you are unable to send your child to school just because you can not afford it or pulling your child out of school because your job does not pay you enough to support her education. Imagine your child working under exploitive condition rather than going to school. Imagine your child going to bed empty stomach because you could not earn enough to provide your child with food. Well, this is what happens everyday but we do not see it. Why? Because we don't want to know it. We choose to ignore all these and go on living our lives which moves around money, enjoyment and everything materialistic.
