and still some more street kids

Hi there! Just when I was beginning to miss the streetkids were they out again, well, on the streets. Do you remember Nonoy whom I featured here many weeks ago? It turns out his name is Nognog and that he is from Brgy. San Policarpo. But still I've got no idea about his parents or family. Did I mention that sometime he acts as parking guide at Jollibbee Calbayog? That's him (below) doing his job.


And this little girl. She not only gamely posed for pictures, it seems like she had fun posing for one, and another one with a kinda naughty boy. If you think these kids are small, wait 'til you see the kids begging at zilmar pharmacy.


Now, what kind of parents would let their kids (this small) roam the city streets at 9:oo in the evening. The night I saw them, they were, well, "asking" for piso from cutomers who happen to drop by Jollibbee. I was informed that these kids are from Hamorawon and that their parents supposedly are always busy either drinking or playing tong-its.

The parents of these children should be imprisoned for negligence! Or better yet, the government should take temporary custody of these children before they are taken by human smugglers or more scarier, taken by phedophiles. God Forbid!
