That's the only option those parents have.

If you are very poor and the party offers your kids education, food and a career. I doubt if any parent wouldn't let go their kids.

Its basically like putting up your kid for adoption. People do that when they have no way out. If they had absolutely any other option, trust me they would keep their kids with them.



Well, they don't have another choice, and so this is a good option. It's better than what happens in India, with almost half the child population suffering from malnutrition - it's even worse in India than in sub-Saharan Africa, which is saying something.
