Week 8

Looking at the Early Childhood field in other countries has made me realize that so many parts of the world have a long way to go.  Some of the consequences are:

1.  There are so many poor countries that do not have the resources to provide quality child care.  Resources  are used for food and housing.

2.  In some countries children are not able to get an education because their family needs them to work to help out the family.  There are 75 million children excluded from education (http://www.unesco.org/).

3.  There are many world wide organizations to help developing countries but without the support from the public there won't be enough funds to continue to support them.

One goal I want to work towards  is helping children in poverty in this country and learning more about what I can do to help across the world.
