These aren't pretty pictures. But they should have been, considering that the subjects are children. Each year, more and more children are born without food, shelter and clothing. These are the basic of the most basic necessities that sadly, a lot of our children don't have. The infant mortality rate, and the mortality rate of children under the age of 5 are shocking, and beyond depressing. I don't understand why stuff like this isn't on the news. We report all kinds of celebrity activity but very little is reported about the state of our world's children. In today's fast paced, high tech-digital world, we boast of our capacity to bridge the farthest countries. Magnificent technological inventions such as Skype, Google Talk, and Yahoo now allow users from different ends of the eart to talk to each other as though they were in the same room. The communication era is at it's peak... And yet, so little is being said and done about poverty, ignorance, hunger and our favorite, world peace. To top it all off, because of these useless wars we're "effing" having, kids are now getting shot. What's "effing" worse is that our children are now soldiers. They're "effing" fighting someone else's stupid religious war, or fighting for some moron's political bullshit.

It's just not right. It's just not right at all.
