Are You Proud of Your Country?

 Author's Note: Do you ever think how lucky you are to have a house a school to go to and food to eat? And how other people in different countries don't have that

Do ever think how lucky you are to have a roof over your head and food to eat and loving family and friends that take care of you? Some people don’t have shelter and food to eat and not that many people to take care of them. Some people don’t even have a good environment to live in. I’m proud of the country I live and feel bad for other countries. Are you proud of the country you live in?
When people move to a new country because of their dad job or some other reason and they got enrolled into a good school and got a house to live in and they complain of the school and the house they live in. I don’t think they realize how lucky there are to get a house and a good school. In some countries some parents’ are trying to get money for their kids to get in to school and it there is lot of unemployment everywhere.

As the parents are trying to get kids into school let’s not forget the kids who don’t have any freedom. While here women are allowed to vote and in other places women can’t vote. And it’s not just the voting that makes countries bad but, it’s the slavery that is still going on around the world. Keeping children away from their parents not getting enough food to eat and hurting them if they did something wrong. How would you feel if you were forced to work for someone and get beaten up every time you did something wrong and all of that just at a young age?

While the people are being held as a slave let’s think about how people especially in Asia that have to deal with electricity problems. Over there people have to deal with no electricity for couple of hours or even more. And sometimes they have to deal with no electricity during the night and it’s really hard for them to fall asleep. Plus, it’s really hot there so having no electricity makes it even harder living there.

The next time you say the food your mom made isn’t good or complaining about moving to a new school or house or how hot your are during the summer. Think about the kids and their family in other countries that doesn’t have anything close to what you have.
