Children Underground - part10

During the Ceauçescu-era contraception and abortions were forbidden and so thousands of unwished children were born. After the fall of Ceauçescu's dictatorship many of them ran away from the orphanges or their parent's home to escape the cruelty what happened to them in these places...

They live in the underground stations or in abandoned houses, they live in small groups with strong hierarchies, they copy what they have experienced in their life among adults, their lifes are dominated by violence, drugs and the daily struggle to survive in a hostage world, which offers them barely changes to escape it.

I remember seeing all 10 parts before. These poor street kids forced to live like this because of Romania's past Dictator and what he did to destroy Romania while robbing it blind. These kids deserve so much more than being forced to live like animals on the street. It is hard to believe that the E.U. does not or can not do more to help them. They are, after all, Romania's future. This is truly a very sad situation.

Well it's not only because of Ceauçescu, he was killed 20 years ago, those kids are much younger. I do not doubt that there are still negative influences on the Romanian society from this era but streetkids you can find in nearly all big cities in Europe. Sure the EU could do lot of things for streetkids but it simply costs money... Btw I live in Berlin and met some time ago a boy in the age of 7 to 9 in the night on the street, while he tried to steel our dog.

@reddragon696 The boy was homeless and could wether read nor write, he lived together with a bunch of elder guys who forced him to steal, sure the most of the streetkids here are older as this boy, but the problem also exists in Germany...

Ana looks like she has fetal alcohol syndrome...look at her face...poor kids...

[jstar85flower]

this is unbelievable!!! the parents are asking a 10 year old whether she wants to live with them or on the streets? And the trying persuading her to leave, when asking her what her decision will be. She obviously wants to stay, but how can she when that stepfather will only torture her more. Did anyone notice that at @1:23 Ana says "we're coming back here with them" when looking at the worker, yet her mother and stepfather ignore her in order to get her to leave. God protect this kids!
