One of the things that moves me the most as I travel the world is to see children having to raise their younger siblings. Something happened to mom and dad and now they are the breadwinners. They're the ones who have to protect. It makes my heart break. I've thought about compiling a book about them. What do you think? If you have a story or a picture, please share it.
