I am wondering about those kids I see on church grounds doing shoe polishing for churchgoers. I pity the kids, they are still babies. But it is better that way to earn decent money than do an act of begging. I asked the kid why doing it and his answer was priceless, he said he wanted to save money for his college education. He was in grade 5 at that time. It's good to see kids do the polishing more than the mature ones. Wha is your stand on this guys?
Though its not I bad idea but I feel there are some other things kids can do to make money

Hehehe, it depends. The kids I saw doing the shoe polishing were street kids but now they're under the care of DSWD.
Glad that they are under the care of the Social Welfare.
I think now is not a good business. Shoe polishing can be done at home now since the materials can be easily bought.

That is right, my brothers bought 1 set of shoe polish and they are the ones polishing their shoes and sometimes they include policing my shoes hehehe, la-lab.

For me I don't agree with the idea.Let the kids go to school, concentrate on their studies and when after school and in the right age they can start working.

But I don't think that's caging they just have to stay one place than roaming every where that'd just it.
Tose kids used to roam around with their same status, but this time, they are no longer found in the streets. They are now sent to schools by the local government.

I think these children need to be supported by governments because they need to continue their educations not shoe polishing.

They are now sent to schools by the local governments. They will be captured once seen roaming around doing shoe polishing.It is dangerous for them to get influenced by drug addicts.

I wish to have opportunity to empower such passionate people in life. Such people can definitely make money early for themselves in life if given the right opportunity.

I do not think that this kind of business is good for kids. I think that it is very important to educate kids rather than getting them involved in such kind of work.

In my view small kids completely focus on their studies they don't need to do some extra work and government should provide free education facilities.
