It is estimated that there are more than 600,000 street children living in Bangladesh, 75% of them live in the nation's capital, Dhaka. We all know that there are no discrimination between any kind of children. But in our society, many people look down upon street children with a discriminatory attitude and treat them as non-human beings. 

Though our nations laws are the same for all children, and the street children are no exception, but in our country we don't see to apply any kind of rules to street children. We  try to force as much as possible to street children.

Most importantly, survival rights, development rights, protection rights, and participation rights are also ensured by the convention. But street children get none of 
this. They have to work for one meal at a time. Everybody already noticed that our country is on the road to becoming a developed nation. For that children play a vital role and the children living on the streets are no exception. 

So, every organisation and govt. should to give opportunities to street child that allow them to exercise their talents . If i go a few days back, a child called Rana, known as “Gully boy” went viral on social media because of his singing talent.  It can be possible every city have a hidden telanted child but we don't give him proper freedom to exprees his telant. We should behave normal with street child and please don't make discrimination between street child, autism child and normal child. Keep your eyeview to a common word "Child".
