I don't mean to interfere to other country affair, so social politics. From youtube documentaries, I saw many children survive at the street by stealing, robbing, or perform funny tricks in Mexico city. These children truly do their best to survive. Without schooling, or other proper education, would they think their next generation won't do any good to the society as well as to Mexican future? Not just about Mexico, other latin american countries too, there were millions of those children without a proper home, or going to school either. No wonder there are so many criminal acts going through. How should we improve the condition of it?

I am not sure that we can improve the condition. I know a lot of hispanics here send things down to their family in Mexico so that they can have a better life down there, clothes, jewelry, money as well. It's hard for them down there, and it doesn't seem to be getting any easier.
It's difficult to send money and things down to Mexico as it costs a lot of money to do so.

I think that all of the children in the world should have a home to live in and a parent or a carer. I guess that charities try to help homeless children in Mexico. Really the government of Mexico should try to make the children in its country safe. In many other countries there is a similar situation and this is sad. Sometimes children brought up in a rough childhood do turn to crime. I watch a program called 'Unreported World' on British television. It would be excellent if they could cover the story of homeless children in Mexico. I believe that a free education is essential in helping children gain an qualifications to make a decent adult life. I believe adoption is the answer to take all the homeless children off the streets of Mexico into loving homes. Maybe Americans could help out because they live in the next door country.

It is certainly so unfortunate and sad to read as all children are birth to this world should have a place to sleep and feel safe.
But unless the government and the community as whole does their part to help there is nothing one person alone can do, as the numbers are growing highly on a daily basis. So unfortunate..
