We Pakistanis, as the custodians of the dream of Iqbal and the vision of Jinnah have to ask ourselves why and how we have fallen to the depths we have, in our duty to our children. These pure souls sent to us by God are neglected, discriminated against, not provided for and abused in the worst possible manner right in front of our eyes but nothing pierces our stupor.
With millions of children out of school, millions in substandard schools, and an unknown number out in the streets fending for themselves and doing child labor, each one of us carries a very heavy burden whether we choose to acknowledge it or not
Let this Universal day of Children be the day when we say no more. Let each one of us in our own capacity look around and be a support for children around us. Let us raise our voices in any manner we can to move our governments into action.
