Orphans of Society

When we hear of the word orphan it is usually understood a child with no parents to take care of the child. However, there are different type orphans. Orphans with parents alive but absent in taking care of their children physically or emotionally. There is also another area where unfavorable environment contributes in developing behavioral problems in children that are similar to that of orphans. So many children grew up in an environment where school system and the type of education prepare them to be nonfunctional as an adult. Poor neighborhood schools are poorly funded lack of teaching materials, poor parents with little care for their children and plenty of criminal activity in the neighborhood.
Alcohol and drug is within reach of poor children and making them likely alcoholics and addicts. Some of the poor children may graduate high school but very few are equipped to hold a job. Most girls are exposed to unsafe sex, and as a result, under age pregnancy is common as well as drug and alcohol consumption. The majority of children from poor neighborhood end up in prisons.
They are orphans of society.
