In the year 2000, 65,000 people were orphaned by AIDS in Botswana alone and in
Zimbabwe a total of 980,000 orphans have been recorded, this situation is
however a sort of set back to the development of the continent. These children
are the leaders of tomorrow and the possibility of getting a cure (suitable
treatment) for AIDS lies in theirs hands only if they are educated. In most
cases, when children are orphaned by such disease the burden of child raising
will be once again bestowed on there aged grand parents. In some cases,
emotionally such children becomes unstable and as such needs emotional and moral
support. |
In Most cases children Orphaned by aids are being
left in custodies of their old grand parents |
