God's Children

In Language Arts class, we watched a video called "God's Children". It talked about extremely poor families in the Philippines. Some people live in garbage dumps. They live in terrible conditions. Most of the families had >3 kids. Most families hardly had enough food to eat. They couldn't afford rice. Their houses are made of scrap metal and wood; most of the houses don't even have walls. Their health is really low, the water is polluted. If someone gets sick, he dies because they don't have enough money for buying medicine. If something happens, like a typhoon or a landslide, most people would die and their houses would disappear. It is really sad to live under such circumstances.
