Children of Leningradsky - A tribute

[villafane12]

Russia A powerfull Country cares more for Military affairs than their own childrens! its so sad!

[letmelive7]

What are you doing for these children, and is this also going on in the U.S.A.?

[0TrueRussianMan0]

.

all not so bad.

To you show only the worst in Russia.

Western politicians will never allow you to see the happy Russian families.

They never will allow to you see in Russia is something good!

The propaganda machine is working day and night.

as if i dont do so already! p0raying is the first thing that comes to mind, actions from praying is the next! i pray to find solution, not to free myself from guilt! You should try it some times!

[youtunicu]

that's so sad... ;(

[RackJacket]

Russia is too busy stockpiling its weapons and spending all its money on looking big and bad to give a shit about these kids,

Thats the truth of it

[hearse4me69]

see, russia is almost just like America. We have thousands of homeless children here too. Only difference is were too proud to talk about it so it gets covered up. Gos forbid we help our own, lets instead save thousands of children across the globe rather than at home like we should. No child should be homeless, but isnt it fair to american children to get help from americans before we help other countries children?

:( why:(

[alonelychild]

What about adoptive families and sponsor homes, why are not discussed?

[mrkv39]

not common in russia.  In USSR there were these HUGE state-run orphanages that looked more like prisons. After USSR collapsed those kids were completely neglected and literarly, millionsof them run away and ended up on the streets. Its the USSR legacy and these state orphanages still function and are not fully replaced by foster homes/small private orphanages.

[SweetbrierNum1]

I wouldn't say it's not common. Who told you so?

[mrkv39]

i did volunteer work in Russia with homeless kids. Foster care was introduced just a few years ago and the legacy care are huge state-run orphanages.

Erst kürzlich wurde eine videoreportage darüber gelöscht !.

Fand es sehr schade !

[Pulsarsin]

Danke das du die leute auf diese vergessenen Kinder aufmerksam machst !

[Pysiia1]

[Holso5]

i was referring to kids you saw in the movie. not homeless kids in general.

[1eimiz]

i readed book, and there are depict childrens, who was taken from streets to summer camp.there are writen theirs coduct. and 8-10 years childrens drinked,smoked and used drugs... most of them ended their lifes suicide... it's so sad :(((

[mrkv39]

what book?

[mpnl21]

i saw the documentary today

it was so shocking to see.. i never knew how it really was, that it was that bad.

poor kids, and there's thousands of them in moscow alone..

i wonder how those kid's life went (since it was made in 2004), if they're still alive, if they're still living there or maybe if their life got easier...

problably we'll never know...

i wish we could change the world !

you did a good work with the video btw

[Holso5]

I saw an interview with Hanna Pollack. She said that one girl from the movie (not sure which one) was re-uninted with her family and is an honors student in school. But virtually everyone else from the movie is in jail now.

Thanks for posting. I'm sorry that you have to get such crazy reponses to such a poignant tribute. What beautiful little children with such sad, sad eyes...

[0Humanity0]

the answer is: people is trying so hard to make africa look bad instead of worrying about their own. it seems that society is so worry about how it looks instead of how it's doing,[quantity over quality. bra]

we need to stop trying to make ourself look more superior then others and get it togather.

Welcome to Humanity

[ShahzadTiwana]

Hey there

Thanks for comment. Well yes..there are so many people in the world who need help. Human life has little value these days. We have become so materialistic that we shy away from the bitter realities of life....This was a little step...But I hope it will shake someones concience. Lets make this world a better place to live...

Peace
