cause of social ill among children in this modern time

Children constitute almost one-half of the six billion people on the planet. Tremendous numbers of them are suffering and dying. To reflect on violence against children is to connect with major social ills in our world today: disease,Forced into Child Labor,and wars.


first,Lacking Basic Rights- With estimates of two billion people living in poverty, millions and millions of children lack basic education, health care, and housing. There are so many children who die every day. and there are so many children in all the world's under school age, who have no school to attend. Millions of others are attending schools with the barest minimum of supplies. Sexism leaves more girls than boys out of the classroom. not only lacking of basic right,children suffer and die from malnutrition, diarrhea, diphtheria, malaria, respiratory illnesses, and other diseases. AIDS has become a great threat to children; it is estimated that as many as half of the 15-year-olds will die from the disease. Tobacco, the single most lethal agent to humanity, is aggressively marketed to children, particularly in economically-developing countries; 90 percent of those who smoke begin doing so before their 18th birthday.


next,For basic survival of themselves and their families, children are forced to labor as factory and agricultural workers, as cleaners, in the sex trade, and in a host of other occupations. Even the very youngest are engaged in long hours of repetitive, often dangerous work. Sweatshops thrive on the abuse of children. Education is sacrificed.This is true around the globe, where the most dangerous occupation for children is as farm workers.


last,Children suffer the greatest effects of war: being terrorized, being maimed and killed, and having their lives totally-disrupted by the bombing and shooting. Children's health is also impacted by the loss of basic services such as water, electricity, schooling, and health care.As Refugees,Children are most at risk when their families suffer from war and other conflicts or are displaced by natural disasters.As Child Soldiers Increasingly, children are not only victims of war, but also are combatants. Some are forcibly recruited, trained, and forced to kill, others join to escape poverty, alienation, and discrimination. Girl soldiers also are prone to sexual harassment, rape, and abuse.

finally,disease,Forced into Child Labor,and wars is the main cause social ills among youth in modern time.We have a generation of youth that think that they can do anything to anyone or anything. They don't repect other peoples rights and haven't had to work hard for the things that they have been given. There is also a serious breakdown within families. There needs to be more love and involvement within our own homes. It truely starts there. Too bad parents are too scared to put their foot down and disipline their kids for fear of being hauled off for child abuse. I also think their are alot of kids and teens who just want and need to be loved. They want boundries set for them. They want security. They want parents who care for and love them. Because if they don't get it at home they will find it in gangs and other places. It's just unfortunate that those are not good places to get it.
