Child beggars are very hard to reject, when they ask you for some money, it is very hard to say no. But, child beggars are often used for a crime by some people who would like to earn money through those children.

Hey guys, today I am going to tell you about a situation that probably happened to you too. If you have ever walked on streets of some big city, with few millions of people populating it, you must have been asked for some money by some kid. As they say, they need money to buy something to eat, they need bread or something like that. It is very hard to say "No" to a kid that is only 6 or 7 years old. But, don't be fooled! There are people who want to use people's sympathy with those children and they are going to use those children as machines that could get them profit. 

If you have watched Indian movie "Slumdog Millionaire", you know what I am talking about. Some people pick up some kids and provide them everything they need at that stage - food, place to sleep, a feeling that they are not alone. Then they send them to streets to beg people for money. In order to increase the amount of money people will give them, they are ready to give them little babies. There were also stories of babies which were addicted to cocaine, because then they could cry all the time, and people would give them more money.

There are various examples of how people are using children to get money, especially in countries in development, but, that is not only illegal, but it is also not ethical. It is the lowest point of humanity, using weak and powerless children to earn money. 

Often, those people hurt the children in order to increase the sympathy that people feel to them. Because of that, many children get blind, lose their hands, fingers or other body parts. If they reach some ages when they stop being "cute" to the people, they often get killed by their "owners". 

Because of that, if you want to help to those children, don't give them money, because someone is making a great business of that. It would be the best if you informed police about that, and they will handle the situation.
