The Challenges Of Kenyan Orphans

By Grace Daniels


Kenyan orphans are the most in the entire world because the country is not economically stable therefore poverty leads to death of different parents. They have no one to care and protect them hence are all alone in this harsh country. They have no food; clothes and even security which makes a child grow to be independent after being brought up by both of the parents or even one of them.

They are found in all societies because a tragedy can happen to anyone. The parents leave their children when they are young some even not aware of what has happened to them. With the country being underdeveloped, this problems rise time to time and the remedy is never found because it is an unending disaster.

Kenya is among the undeveloped countries or third world countries that have weak economic system hence not able to provide well for the orphans. They greatly rely on help from other countries especially he international ones. Without assistance, the children could remain unattended or completely neglected by the society. Most firms in this region are owned by foreigners who decide to play that important part in the country.

It is not a wish of any parent to leave their children under care of someone else during their life time. One can not avoid death because it comes at anytime and anywhere. Therefore parents are advised to secure a future for their loved ones while they have a chance so that they will not suffer even when they die.

Religious institutions have also helped the people in taking care of the young ones by setting up institutions called children home that caters for the high population in the country. They provide all the necessities through the contributions given to them by the members and even some give food and clothes to these little children for free. The workers in those institutions are self willing and most even do it for free or self voluntary to help the society.

Proper health care and hygiene is needed for good health of the human body. When these children are on the streets they are prone to this diseases and sickness that could lead to death. The country may not be able to give the medical attention for free and they are therefore left out when it comes to the services.

The attitude of the members of society determines how the children are treated. Some people tae them as their own and they live in families who adopt them without discriminating. However, others do not give attention to them and these make them aggressive and are always lamenting wondering why they have to suffer in that way.

Kenyan orphans who are in local area do not have a chance of bettering their lives due to lack of exposure. They remain in the village and rely on the residents for support even if those members are poor they try to give them all they require. The country needs a lot of effort to stand up and take care of them.
