Child soldiers are used in many countries in different regions of the world

The children are stolen from their homes, or sometimes their parents sell them off, and have them go fight, so the family can make some money.

The majority of child soldiers are thought to be in North Africa, but the truth is that there is also a large amount of them fighting in the middle east as well.

Once the children are stolen, they are taken away, and the leaders completely control their lives, everything they do will revolve around fighting. The children don’t try o escape often, because they know if they are caught, they would be beaten or killed.

Potential Ways To Stop The Problem

Poverty is the main issue that drives the use of child soldiers, if we can help these nations out of poverty, it might help prevent the abduction, and use of these

children as soldiers.
