“Children who come here often have problems with their parents. Because they don’t have money, are absent, or have been involved in crime themselves. Their parents are not clan chiefs, but soldiers. And many fathers are in prison because of stupidity.”

To prevent their children from going down the same path, Laieta says it’s especially important that they have good role models. “Many of the young people who come here would like to become psychologists or counselors later, because they are dealing with it. And for young people who don’t have positive role models, the only thing that stands out is crime.”
