It is not as if we do not have the skills and resources to respect and acknowledge the rights of young people and children. Instead we prefer the madness of ignorance, the addictive sensation of being selfish.<\/p>\n<p>We, humanity, are sucked into this agony of self-righteousness. We prefer the bliss of not being poor, or marginalized. Many children are made vulnerable because of our prejudice at their way of life, their resistance against the establishment and the fact that they are poor. We are the monsters that prey on the future of streetkids, we choose to abandon them to their fate.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4767\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4767\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4767\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/moui.net\/blog\/2012\/07\/the-lost-child-gnawing-at-the-edge-of-reality\/img-20120710-02997\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"homeless\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Homelessness and poverty&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4767\" title=\"homeless\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?resize=640%2C480&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/moui.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/IMG-20120710-02997.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4767\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Homelessness and poverty<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fmoui.net%2Fblog%2F2012%2F07%2Fthe-lost-child-gnawing-at-the-edge-of-reality%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=true&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=80\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:80px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Children, roaming aimlessly, many with worries on their faces.\u00a0Faces are drawn and haggard from homelessness and work.
