Reforming Street Kids

There is need for the street kids to be reformed and get them fully engaged in profitable things. Educating them in the main basic way is the first step. We need to let them know how useful they could become not only for themselves but also for the society.
Unfortunately, the governments in Africa are not prepared for this sort of challenge. The onus is therefore on all of us that have taken over the challenge in ensuring that the street kids and their ilks are supported through either education, technical training, learning of trade or some other useful ventures that will keep them for the sustainable development of the society.
With this basic tenet at the back of our minds, we should be prepared to march the street kids to a profitable and sustainable future. Given the opportunity, i am prepared to assist in my own little way in getting them educated, even if in an informal setting.
