Never complain about the things your parents could not give you…

Right now, in this country, children are going to school hungry because they don’t get a proper breakfast. They go through winter without a warm coat or a decent pair of shoes. Some even have to sleep on a damp mattress on the floor because they don’t have their own bed. And according to ‘Save The Children’ – It Shouldn’t Happen Here – the recession is making things so much worse. Poverty kills childhood and destroys futures.

The first few years of a child’s life can be the difference between a happy, rewarding life and one spent trapped in a cycle of wasted potential and hopelessness.
