obscure veracity

Couple of weeks back I started working with an NGO named JIGGISHA. Children from the very poor families come here. They are served with breakfast,lunch and bit of education. I was sceptical because those children were totally ignorant of what is imparted to them except for the food. They come from the dirty,dingy slums. They vary from the age group of 5 to 10. When i was interacting with them, was gaped in awe by the loads of abuses they were blurting out. They werent aware of the meaning, or didnt do to vent out wrath they just said what they had learnt by heart instead of A B C D. They dont get a healthy environment to grow up. It takes so much of effort to make them get rid of this habbit. They see their mothers getting beaten up, their fathers abusing, making love with their mothers. Very few of their parents encourage education, they are just least bothered. At the beginning I used to scold the children but now slowly have started realizing that its not their fault. They are young. They ensue whatever they see 24*7. Whatever they are nurtured with. I am perplexed. Still looking for a remedy. Still hoping to to give these kids a better future, a healthier future.
