Then my parents asked what are you going to name her?I thought for a bit then chose her name.Was going to be Angela.My parsons nodded then said ok at the same time.So we decided where will she stay  Wednesday 20 August 2016 So we decided that Angela would sleep on an old mattress on the floor. In my room next to my bed.But with the whole feeding thing .We didn't want to spend a lot of money.So we made a garden patch but she always ate it.

A day in a life of and a home of a child in an informal settlement

Image
Do you know how it is to wake up every morning wet and cold .Then  have to go to school on an empty stomach. Having a family of 6t to live on 1290 a month. 13 Thousand people living in one community.When you come home from school there is nobody to take care of you are on your own. Only one of 30 children get to finish school. when I go to school and have tests I can't learn because I have to share with 5 other people.It is just so hard for me . I want to go play sport outside but my school can't afford it .When I'm sick I want to go to the hospital but there is know space for me . I am so sad because I have to leave school next year  because I have been in school for 5 years. When I need the bathroom I have to wait in a long line before I can use the bathroom . When I got home from school I had to wash my clothes in a bucket. The worst thing of all when I got home it started to rain and my shack started to flood .Then I had to sleep in a wet bed it was so terrible.
