Forgive me please, as I am not a parent. I never have been a parent. However, I have at forty-five, two newly adopted sons. Well, I should say, two sons to help in assisting with schooling, donating time and being generally available. I am sadly the only male role figure in these young lives to offer any kind of love. These children are destitute unwanted and unloved, desperate for attention and needing love. My family grows daily, as does the work here in East Africa

I write from Arusha in Northern Tanzania. We, at our Charity work with street children and or orphaned children within our community. Every day someone dies here
