Children--Why do we need to enlarge our vision

Children anywhere, everywhere, are the common heritage of mankind; nay, indeed, the way they survive will shape the future of mankind. It’s perfectly okay when you give love, affection care and best within your means to your child but while doing so we all need to keep some space in our hearts for those children also who happen to be not as fortunate as our children are. When we do so we create abetter future for our own children.

These children of lesser God are less likely to know how to cope in crises. Perhaps the reason why we are commanded to care for children is not only that they may suffer more, but that there is less they themselves can do about it.
