STOP THE PRESSES.


THIS STORY IS SO CRITICAL TO THE WORLD THAT
IT'S PROBABLY AT THE TOP OF EVERY NEWS SITE I VISIT. OH MY GAWDSH, SHE MUST BE THE 1ST TEENAGER TO EVER DO DRUGS AND SHE’S FAMOUS. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE WORLD WE LIVE IN!?!? DEAR LORD, WHERE ARE HER MORALS? Meanwhile, 3 boys are missing in Michigan, ‘Corrective Rape' in South Africa is still a problem AND the UN voted to accept execution of gays, and it’s unimportant because MILEY CYRUS SMOKED A BONG. 


Fatimah Bamun, (BALIZENDA, Ethiopia) dropped out of Balizenda Primary School in grade 1 when her father refused to buy her pencils and paper. WOW, FATHER OF THE YEAR~ This is pretty harsh but actually kids around the globe don't have education because of reasons like this. They don't have enough money and so they have to provide for their families instead of work.


In sub-Saharan Africa, school fees consume nearly a quarter of a poor family's income, paying not only for tuition, but also indirect fees such as Parent-Teacher Association and community contributions, textbook fees, compulsory uniforms and other charges. FEES ARE KEEPING SCHOOL CHILDREN OUT OF THE CLASSROOMS. BUT WAIT. In order to deliver on the global promise to get all children quality primary education by 2015, the UN system is rallying partners around innovative policy measures and bold initiatives such as the abolition of school fees.


Roughly estimated 700 million primary-school-age children in the world today, about 93 million aren`t in school. A majority of these children live in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Mostly children of ethnic minorities from remote regions, working children, children living in conditions of emergency and conflict, children affected by HIV/AIDS, and children with disabilities. And 53 per cent – girls.
