		<description>Yes, &quot;comprehensive population management&quot; should be one of the solutions - but would the church be willing to relax their stand on condoms, birth control pills, and other &quot;artificial&quot; contraceptives. A church official was quick to blame everyone for the tragic incident. Would they be willing to look inward and admit that they&#039;re a big part of the problem?

		<description>@ Nicusor- greed and corruption is everywhere. The love of money (not money itself) indeed is the root of all injustices in this world :-(

		<description>The greedy, the selfish, the parvenus, these waste products of our society don&#039;t care about those in pain. Their restrictions of the brain and soul surface won&#039;t let them move a finger, make a step and go out and help someone in need. 

As the world is being controlled by this kind of animals, faith is the only remaining solution...

Kind regards,
Maria

		<description>It&#039;s so damn sad that these kind of things are happening in this &quot;modern&quot; world... 

It&#039;s revolting to hear a politician (2 nights ago) with 3 millions euros in his account saying on television that he has a medium money income situation... and what&#039;s even worst is that this scum is not the only one out there :(

		<description>[...] Last November 2, a young girl of 12 looped a thin rope around her pretty, fragile neck and hanged herself inside their makeshift home. It was said that she did this out of desperation that she and her family will be stay in the muddy pools of poverty forever. But this despairing child also had her dreams: a new bike, new shoes, jobs for her mother and father, and to be back in school. She wrote these in her diary. Was she able to write down her thoughts of ending her life as well?A lot have already expressed their sympathies for this girl and her family. It was said that she and her sad story have put a face on poverty. Or maybe, more importantly, it has given us the intermittent jolt that we need to be reminded that we aren&#8217;t all comfortable and well-nourished. Some also said that this story of Mariannet should make us remember the lies that our government officials feed us. But then, even if our government lie to us, steal from us, cheat on us, it is also important that we, ourselves, should try to contribute to building our society and help our brothers in need.

		<description>I felt really bad with regards to the news about Mariannet death, especially with the fact that fate should allow such an event to lead the people to realize the graveness of poverty in our country. 

I just hope with such a realization, people will learn to act and see what they can do, even in their own little way....And I mean action....

		<description>The death of Mariannet is just one of the countless deaths inflicted on innocent children by the greed, corruption and cruelty of the adults. If it pricks our conscience, then the tragedy has served a good purpose. If as you suggest, each and everyone of us does our share in our own sphere;such as, paying our household staff fair wage so their own children will not be pushed to the edge of the cliff.

		<description>Hi Noime,

You&#039;re correct. As young people are exposed more on the realities of life, they should be educated on this. Thanks for the visit</description>
