What is a Child Soldier?
by Magaret Amara, Government Model
Secondary School. Freetown, Sierra Leone
I am 16 years old and I attending Model Secondary
school. A child soldier
is a child who has been captured to train and fight against Sierra
Leone.
These people were taking drugs and than some of our brothers and
sisters
were captured by the rebel s who are war -like people .Because
of this
education becomes poor for the children. This make some parents
abandon their children and this led them to follow rebels to the
bush
and they began to thieve, kill, rape, chop people's hands, feet
etc.
