Please do not give money to the street kids. This encourages them to stay out of school and to beg instead of get an education. In some homes, parents will force the younger kids to beg in order to augment the family income. A sweet slightly dirty little girl with big eyes gets a handout much quicker than a begging able bodied adult.
