I had a big problem when I found a policeman beating street children. I spoke to the children and took them to a social worker. They are in the streets because of disjointed families. It is not their choice. A man may have married a wife with a child from another man and that child never gets peace. When I tried to help those children by getting somebody to take care of them, it became a big issue for the Children Department. They wanted us to follow the due process. I told them that I was not adopting the children, but was just trying to bridge a gap by creating a stopover place for the children to--- All the 20 children are now in school and are staying in a certain place. Of course, we agreed with the Children Department. So, we need to change the law so that we are not caught off guard."}
