Poverty Strikes On The World!
Poverty is where people have unreasonably low living standards compared with other ; can most definitely not afford to buy important items to feed or protect them selves/family. Today, nearly half the world’s 6 billion people lives on less than $2 a day. However, poverty is a real life affecting both rich and poor countries . In developed countries it is a possible chance that 1 in 10 children live below the poverty line. The situation in developing countries is much worse now.
In the year 2000 (separated by the rest of the years) 1.7 million children were needlessly lost because countries around the world failed to reduce poverty levels. (Many people are struggling for a popper medication to help them live!). When all those children with Poverty grow up , they pay a heavy price. Research shows that they have more sickness, perform poorly in school, have more mental health problems, and a possibility that they might die in a early age if a positive cure is not found.
Children in poverty face greatly reduced educational prospects and future life chances. This is the conclusion not just of social policy experts and government statisticians, but of early aged children themselves. Having Poverty changes the way the children react in class and to other class mates, they also feel that they have been “got at” by their teachers some how.

Now to tell you about their daily life; After all that suffering from Poverty parents and children have to build their own houses to live, if not they have to sleep on the ground under a rock or a tree. (It’s horrifying to hear it that way). When they eventually build their homes they sleep on rotten mats, they might even have to sleep on the filthy floor if they had no choice.

As you see in this picture, those people are drinking from the dirty river that passes through! That’s is how they get aids if they keep going. But…. they have no choice because they are poor, they can not afford much in their life!

Although here is a chart on poverty percentages:
